“When you aren't sincere you need to pretend, and by pretending you limit reality.”
— Alberto Moravia

Simplified Meaning:
When you're not being honest, you have to fake things. This faking creates a gap between what's real and what you're showing others. Think about a student who hasn't studied for a test but keeps telling their friends they have. They have to keep up the act, making excuses and stories. This limits their actions because they can't ask for help or speak the truth. If they were sincere, they could be open and get real support. Staying true to yourself lets you live more freely and honestly.
