"What didn't you tell me?"

"Does it hurt? The truth you keep hidden?"

"Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd when it is built on a lie."

"If you come with me tomorrow, you're going to see things. You will not feel the same about me."

"If the world's going to end, why keep secrets?"

"I know you don't like it, but there are still things about my past I don't want you to know."

"I guess I haven't been totally honest with you..."

"The more we learn, the more we question - and the more we question, the more we see through the lies perpetrated upon us."

"Walking in unannounced is a good way to get yourself killed."

"I go by several names. I doubt any of them are your concern."

"We wouldn't want any of your guilty little secrets coming to light, would we?"

"No one wins if the truth comes out - including you."

"You don't seriously expect me to believe this?"

"When were you going to tell me? Did you think people weren't going to notice?"

"Ah. I was hoping you weren't going to ask me that."

"Please believe me when I say that there are some things it is better not to know."

"Listen, there's something I have to tell you. It's something I've been hiding. It's going to seem a little weird, but I think you should just try to keep an open mind and not judge right away, okay?"

"Lies are always sexier than the truth, but unfortunately, I've had enough this week to last a lifetime, so why don't you just tell me the truth?"

"Once the truth is out, you have to face it."

"What good is faith when it is a lie?"

"It's always the little lies that get us in the end, isn't it?"

"I know this all sounds insane, but how does any of what's happened today make sense if I'm lying?"

"I am not what you think I am."

"The truth can't be wrong, even if it is ugly."

"I love you, but you wouldn't have loved me back if you knew."
