You will be amused when you see that I have more than once deceived without the slightest qualm of conscience, both knaves and fools.
Look! Don't be deceived by appearances - men and things are not what they seem. All who are not on the rock are in the sea!
Even though we are deceived, still believe. Though we are betrayed, still forgive. Love completely even those who hate you.
You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you don't trust enough.
In Shakespeare's world, characters cannot trust their senses. Is the ghost in Hamlet true and truthful, or is it a demon, tempting young Hamlet into murderous sin? Is Juliet dead or merely sleeping? Does Lear really stand at the edge of a great cliff? Or has the Fool deceived him to save his life?
The world loves to be deceived.
I have been constantly betrayed and deceived all my life.
In a movie we try to deceive. In theaters, as they say, the deceived are the wisest.
The Secret Revelation of John opens, again, in crisis. The disciple John, grieving Jesus' death, is walking toward the temple when he meets a Pharisee who mocks him for having been deceived by a false messiah. These taunts echoed John's own fear and doubt.
I was involved, deeply involved, in a deception... I have deceived my friends - and I had millions of them.
