Honesty is the best policy ???

Do you think that honesty is a best policy in every field?

For me I suppose it depends on the degree of the situation.  In most, if not close to all scenarios, I find myself telling the truth, even if it would mean causing trouble for myself.  For me, any potential trouble I might find myself in is far easier to handle than the guilt.

Personally, if I were to lie about something even remotely important, guilt is not only a mental ailment, but also physical.  I quite literally feel sick to my stomach and can't eat or sleep.  That being said, for something like a "white lie", or lying about something small that could in no way hurt anyone, that's do-able.

Everyone sort of handles honesty their own way.  You'll meet people like myself that are guilt-ridden if they lie, people that can lie and feel no guilt, or people that feel the guilt but push through it.  As for myself, I'll stick with honesty.  I personally identify it as one of my stronger qualities as a human.

Honesty gives you peace of mind when you want to sleep at night.

Honesty is important, but to be 100% honest is very difficult.

[capedbaldy]

yes honesty is best policy but of course depends on situation

[tiffyroman]

In most cases, this is the best. However, honesty is not always a white thing to do. At some point, being too honest can be bad and dark.
Honesty therefore is best at gray area. We should be honest, but not too honest. It's kind of a complicated thing. But that's what makes us humans. We are the ones capable of distinguishing the white/gray/dark areas of being honest as AIs can't (with the current technology).

Honesty is the best policy, but forthrightness isn't necessarily the best idea.

[dongchi]

Honesty is not the best policy. If you always tell the truth, everyone will know your privacy and secrets.

Honesty is the best policy be true, stay true, honesty is best for you!!!

My first point is building trust. If someone has trust in you they're more likely to rely on you. If someone asked you a question they'll expect an honest answer. If you are not honest then people will never ever truly trust you! Honesty also builds strong relationships. When someone owns a shp they have to be an honest owner. For example a jewellry shop owner, you go and ask him/her a jade necklace. He gives you one and you pay a lot of money for it and when you get home you find out that necklace is plastic! You know this owner is not a trusted owner. Definetly I won't be going to that shop again. Someone could even complain to the cops and the owner of the shop couldget fired!

[voanquan]

Ask me as escrow... and I would say dishonesty is deadly.

In real life living with other persons... you don't need to tell something that you don't want to tell so speaking around it is fine.

Honesty will not all lead to good things. There are some things that are simply not to be revealed for the good of many.

[edgar]

too much honesty will get you killed

not everyone is sane, some people are absolute psychos

never forget that!

Do you think that honesty is a best policy in every field?

No. If you want to survive, you need a big amount of honesty, a small number of lies and the ability to find out the amount of honesty is needed for certain situation.

That's great... though in fact lying is saying something you know is wrong. In most scenarious you can speak around lying. Well, in case you are the business man with others depending on you that would not be advisable. Honesty is key there to keep your trust.

honesty could be the best tool or guideline to set a better relationship in a business that would, lets say last longer than the usual?  anyway its still the best but sometimes a little lie would bind a huge amount of honesty... hehe just kidding
