A menudo miento para decir la verdad porque, con la descripción desnuda y rigurosa de los hechos, la gente nunca me comprendería ni yo sabría explicarme.

Comunicarme significa convivir con invidentes y empeñarme en que distingan los matices de cada color, su volumen y hasta el olor que desprende. Por eso miento, no puedo evitarlo, porque adoro la verdad en todas sus capas y a veces necesito sacarla fuera. Miento por placer pero casi nunca lo hago para engañar a los otros. No saben que son ciegos.
