Masks and Truth

Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth.
Oscar Wilde
So true. And it sends my thoughts off in a lot of directions: the people I know who absolutely will tell you the truth without a mask, Adam and Eve hiding their nakedness from God (which is where the mask comes in), confession behind the screen versus face-to-face, and much more.
