Quote from Theodore Roosevelt,


"'Liar' is just as ugly a word as 'thief,' because it implies
the presence of just as ugly a sin in one case as in the other.
If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath,
if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law."
