One of Perry's favorite quotes is:"A truth that is told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent. Some people will not tolerate such emotional honesty in communication. They would rather defend their dishonesty on the grounds that it might hurt others. Therefore,having rationalized there phoniness into nobility,they settle for superficial relationships.
It is not nearly so important how well a message is received as how well it is sent. You cannot take responsibility for how well another accepts your truth,you can only ensure how well it is communicated. And by how well,i don't mean how clearly,i mean how lovingly,how compassionitly,how sensitively,how courageously and how completely. A half truth is a whole lie.
Honestly has a beautiful and refreshing simplicity about it. No ulterior motives,no hidden messages. An absence of hypocrisy,duplicity games and superficiality. As honesty and real integrity characterize our lives there will be no need to manipulate others.".

m on yourself,and you can choose to replace them,when you behave badly with healthy feelings of sorrow and regret. By unconditionally accepting yourself you increase your chances of being able to change your harsh reality. Working at unconditional self acceptance will lead to two key principles,unconditional other acceptance and unconditional life acceptance. I am not suggesting that you have to like all things about yourself,others or life,but that acceptance of things the way they are without wishing or demanding that they be different is a better starting point. How do you gain self acceptance? Simply by choosing to have it,instead of choosing to set yourself up for a fall by trying to achieve
pride and self esteem. It requires hard, persistent work to change beliefs about yourself. It took a long time to form these beliefs, it may take a long time to change them.So insight is not the main watchword. Patience,practice and persistence is. My feelings are a result of the way i am thinking about myself,about others and about the events affecting my life. I can change the way i am feeling by changing the way i am thinking.
Denial runs very deep. I am committed to knowing the truth within myself and my life. This exploration is endless. I come across more and more subtle ways that i have cut myself off from seeing the truth. For me,these moments of noticing are like a breath of fresh air,because continuing the lie feels suffocating. Being honest boils down to my willingness to face the stark reality of truth,no matter how uncomfortable it may be. And that is what i choose every single time.".
