"A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble." -Mahatma Gandhi
When I read Gandhi's quote above, I agree with every part of it. I believe that when he said this, he was making the point that it is wrong to lie and deceive people. If a person does something wrong, it's best to admit to the wrong then lying about it to please someone or avoid trouble. It's best to tell the truth because when a person lies, they're only creating more problems. If the truth is told right from the beginning, one may find himself in trouble. But if the same person continues lying, they will only find themselves in more trouble then they would have been if they had just told the truth.
