That which can be destroyed by the truth, should be

(Credit for that quote goes to P.C. Hodgell, apparently.)

• If being honest with your partner (or friend, or family member) would destroy the relationship, maybe that relationship should be destroyed.
• If giving the hard truth to your boss would get you fired, maybe you shouldn’t be working there.
• If handing company leadership raw, un-fussed-with metrics would get your project cancelled…well, you get it.
