Summary
This quote highlights the loss of credibility that comes with being known as a liar. It suggests that lying erodes trust to the point where even when the person finally tells the truth, they are still not believed. The quote implies that once someone has a reputation for dishonesty, it becomes difficult for others to trust their words, regardless of their sincerity in that particular instance. Trust is a fragile commodity that takes time to build but can be shattered with just one instance of deception.
