"When someone lies, they have to juggle multiple narratives: the truth they know; with what you want to know to be true; with what he wants to present as true; and all the emotions that go along with it - fear, anger, guilt, hope. Meanwhile, he tries to project a believable image of himself, which, however, is a hellishly difficult task under these circumstances.

When someone lies, they have to juggle multiple narratives: the truth they know; with what you want to know to be true; with what he wants to present as true; and all the emotions that go along with it - fear, anger, guilt, hope. Meanwhile, he tries to project a believable image of himself, which, however, is a hellishly difficult task under these circumstances.
""Amikor valaki hazudik, egyszerre több narratívával kell zsonglőrködnie: az igazsággal, amit tud; azzal, amit igaznak akar tudni; azzal, amit igaznak akar bemutatni; és mindazokkal az érzelmekkel, amelyek mindezekkel együtt járnak - félelem, harag, bűntudat, remény. Mindeközben pedig igyekszik hihető képet sugározni magáról, ami azonban ilyen körülmények között pokolian nehéz feladat."
