I. Living in the Truth
2469
“Men could not live with one another if there were not mutual confidence
that they were being truthful to one another.”262 The virtue of
truth gives another his just due. Truthfulness keeps to the just mean between
what ought to be expressed and what ought to be kept secret: it entails honesty
and discretion. In justice, “as a matter of honor, one man owes it to
another to manifest the truth.”263
