S02E14 Tell Me Sweet Little Lies
As doctors we’re trained to be skeptical because our patients lie to us all the time. The rule is: every patient is a liar until proven honest.Lying is bad. Or so we’re told. Constantly, from birth. Honesty is the best policy. The truth shall set you free. I chop down the cherry tree.Whatever. The fact is, lying is a necessity. We lie to ourselves because the truth, the truth freaking hurts. 作为医生,我们被训练成对一切持怀疑态度,因为我们的病人总是撒谎。游戏规则是:在查明真相之前,每一个病人都是骗子。至少别人是这么告诉我的,从生下来就一直是。诚实是上策,真相会让你解脱。是我砍倒了樱桃树,无所谓。事实上,撒谎是必要的,我们撒谎是因为真相,真相是钻心的痛苦。 No matter how hard we try to ignore it or deny it. Eventually the lies fall away. Whether we like it or not.But here’s the truth about the truth. It hurts.So we lie. 无论我们怎么努力去忽略或否认,最后谎言还是会不攻自破。不管我们喜欢与否,这就是关于真相的真相,让人痛苦,所以我们才会撒谎。
