Sade: Lies Are Like Bricks

“I believe in the truth.”

Sade with Cocktails, Los Angeles, 1988 - By Matthew Rolston (Source)

Sometimes in order to get peace,
You have to be honest.

Sometimes it’s better to get angry.

I always think that if you
Keep something back from somebody,
It’s like a lie—
It’s like a brick wall.

And every time you do that,
You put another brick in the wall
And then you block them out completely.

So I believe in the truth.

— Sade,
E!, Extreme Close-Up with Arthel Neville (1992)
