Quote by Abraham Lincoln

No man has a good enough memory to make a successful liar.

No man has a good enough memory to make a successful liar.

Summary

This quote means that it is difficult for someone to be a successful liar because they would need a flawless memory to keep track of details and maintain consistency in their deceit. Even a small slipup or inconsistency could reveal the truth and expose them as being dishonest. Therefore, the quote suggests that lying is not a reliable or sustainable strategy, as it requires a superior memory that most people do not possess.
