When my love swears that she is made of truth i do believe her, though i know she lies, that she might think me some untutor'd youth, unlearned in the world's false subtleties. thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young, although she knows my days are past the best, simply i credit her false speaking tongue: on both sides thus is simple truth suppress'd. but wherefore says she not she is unjust? and wherefore say not i that i am old? o, love's best habit is in seeming trust, and age in love loves not to have years told: therefore i lie with her and she with me, and in our faults by lies we flatter'd be. the speaker in "sonnet 138" by shakespeare would most likely agree that lies can sustain a successful relationship women must lie to secure men's love most people prefer lies to the truth it is acceptable to lie about one's age

Most people prefer lies to the truth.

Explanation:

The speaker of this poem most likely would agree with the statement that most people prefer lies to the truth. In these lines, the speaker tells us that his "love" tells him some lies. She lies because she thinks he will not know the truth. However, he knows that she is lying. Nevertheless, he does not think this is a serious problem, because he lies as well, and most people prefer to hear lies than hear the truth. This allows them to have a peaceful relationship.
