About the Item
From Nicholas Poussin’s The Death of Sapphira, circa 1652
As we invariably test the waters of lying, we quickly learn to recognize the more forgiving members of an audience. Rest assured – someone loves you enough to overlook your dishonesty.
And it’s these people that indirectly encourage liars to escalate their fictitious experimentation. Each time we tell a greater lie, we turn to see how our most loving audience members receive us. If our supporters fail to draw a line in the sand, we grow braver with our lies and less tethered to anything grounding.
