“With lies you may get ahead in the world - but you can never go back.”

If you lie be sure you have a good memory.

(-; jim - yes ! ;-) There is always repentance to go forward from where you are now, - but you can never go back. Applying this to the body politic, freedom, liberty, inalienable rights, justice, etc., we can get rid of the lying / torturous Bushes, the lying / assassinating Mr. Obamunist Goodwrenches, the lying / despots of the statist theocracy - but we can never go back to a day of innocence. We can only move forward in re-establishing a Representative Republic / a limited Constitutional system of servants.

Yes- a very useful pointer this is - Going ahead with lying - though not very far with one lie - many know . But one need to know the less obvious 'disadvantaging' that lies bring in. It is that a liar cannot go back on the lies- neither for any effective repentence nor for any rightful enjoyment of his/her past privileges. ! Lost they would be for ever !!.
