Are you in the habit of lying? What would you call yourself? An inveterate liar, a stealth liar, or a harmless casual part-time liar?

In William Shakespeare’s play entitled Romeo and Juliet, lovers of theatre appreciated that the name of any thing is not any more important than its attributes. Talking about Romeo’s house, Juliet said, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” I am sure you catch the drift. A liar by any other name will always remain a liar.

If you are in the habit of hiding behind the veneer of palter and the patina of equivocation, or accustomed to telling the truth while deliberately hiding important but unpleasant facts, you may deceive yourself into thinking you are not a liar.
