Sade on honesty

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.
