“We need to develop a better descriptive vocabulary for lying, a taxonomy, a way to distinguish intentional lies from unintentional ones, and a way to distinguish the lies that the liar himself believes in â€� a way to signal those lies that could be more accurately described as dreams. Lies â€� they make for a tidy little psychological Doppler effect, tell us more about a liar than an undistorted self-report ever could.”
