"何よりもまず自分に嘘をつかないでください。自分に嘘をつき、その嘘に耳を傾ける人は、自分の中や周りの真実を区別できなくなり、自己や他人への尊敬をすべて失ってしまいます。"
— Fyodor Dostoevsky
Simplified Meaning:
Always be honest with yourself. When you lie to yourself, you start believing your own lies and then can't tell what's true anymore. This makes you lose respect for yourself and other people.
