The trick to lying well was to find the truth in your own deception and let that feeling of certainty smooth over all of those nasty guilty feelings that might threaten your resolve.

Take money for instance. Sure, it was nice to have but life was filled with more important things. The smell of freshly cut grass. The sounds of a symphony. The laughter of a child.
Bobby made a long list of those things in his mind to share with his wife when he got home. He was bare chested, having gambled away everything he owned, down to the shirt from his back.
They had lost nothing, only gained freedom from possessions, he reasoned. If it was a lie at all it was an honest one.
