Quote by Martin Luther King Jr.

A lie cannot live.

A lie cannot live.

Summary

This quote implies that lies are inherently unsustainable or short-lived. Lies thrive on deception and lack of truth, but they ultimately cannot endure in the face of reality and the passage of time. Eventually, the truth will be revealed, and the falsehood will be exposed. Just like how life requires truth and authenticity to thrive, lies are unable to maintain their existence indefinitely.
