Jean Piaget Quotes
The child who defines a lie as being a 'naughty word' knows perfectly well that lying consists in not speaking the truth. He is not, therefore, mistaking one thing for another, he is simply identifying them one with another by what seems to us a quaint extension of the word 'lie'.

Sometimes, however, we become fully aware and realize that error as well as truth can move and spur us on to action.
