Quote by D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

Never trust the teller, trust the tale.

Never trust the teller, trust the tale.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of relying on the story itself rather than blindly believing the person telling it. It urges individuals to approach information with a critical mindset and to question the credibility of the source. Its underlying message is that the narrative itself contains the truth, not necessarily the person delivering it. By shifting our trust to the tale, we become more discerning consumers of information and less susceptible to manipulation or bias.
