More From Elizabeth Olsen

Maybe it’s my own fault. maybe i led you to believe it was easy when it wasn’t. maybe i made you think my highlights started at the free throw line, and not in the gym. maybe i made you think that every shot i took was a game winner. that my game was built on flash, and not fire. maybe it’s my fault that you didn’t see that failure gave me strength; that my pain was my motivation. maybe i led you to believe that basketball was a god given gift, and not something i worked for every single day of my life. maybe i destroyed the game. or maybe you’re just making excuses.

If you spend your own money on yourself, you care how much you spend and how well you spend it. if you spend your own money on someone else, you care how much you spend, but you don't care how well it is spent. if you spend someone else's money on yourself, you don't care how much you spend, but you do care how well it is spent. and finally, if you spend someone else's money on someone else, you don't care how much you spend, and you don't care how well it is spent. that is government.
Government Care Wells
You can talk about things indirectly, but if you want to talk how people really talk, you have to talk r-rated. i mean i've got three incredibly intelligent daughters, but when you get mad, you get mad and you talk like people talk. when a normal 17-year-old girl storms out of the house or 15-year-old boy is mad at his mom or dad, they're not talking the way people talk on tv. unless it's cable.

Editing rooms are kind of, by definition, a bubble of you and the editor and what you're thinking. it's a truth-telling thing to watch it through someone else's eyes, is to get another level of real with your material. like, "maybe that's not that funny. maybe that's not as interesting. maybe that's redundant to something else. maybe we can cut down." i don't know. it's a brutal, honest process. you've got to be pretty - you can't be sentimental. you have to be. it's a cold process. you can't be nostalgic. you have to make those tough decisions.
Real Eye Cutting
None of it seems real. who knows? maybe it isn’t. maybe it’s actually happening to someone else. maybe it’s something i imagined. maybe soon i’m going to wake up and find everything fixed with lissa and dimitri. we’ll all be together, and he’ll be there to smile and hold me and tell me everything ‘s going to be okay. maybe all of this really has been a dream. but i don’t think so.
Dream Real Thinking
If i had been a different sort of person, maybe less impressionable, less intense, less fearful, less utterly dependent upon the perceptions of others - maybe then i would not have bought the cultural party line that thinness is the be-all and end-all of goals. maybe if my family had not been in utter chaos most of the time, maybe if my parents were a little better at dealing with their own lives maybe if i'd gotten help sooner, or if i'd gotten different help, maybe if i didn't so fiercely cherish my secret, or if i were not such a good liar, or were not quite so empty inside... maybe.

His whole body was completely still, except the wings, which were still fluttering a little, like when someone dies. that's when he finally understood that of all the things the angel had told him, nothing was true. that he wasn't even an angel, just a liar with wings.

Physicians had gone to their graves calling pasteur a liar, a fool, or worse—without examining evidence which their “common sense” told them was impossible.

Faces can lie. backsides can't.

Above all, i would teach him to tell the truth truth-telling, i have found, is the key to responsible citizenship. the thousands of criminals i have seen in 40 years of law enforcement have had one thing in common: every single one was a liar.
