' Such a description may readily be applied
in Greek, as in English, to one who, owing to his moral
character, cannot possibly tell a lie. oYou rs, applied to
capability (1 ? 26 all); olol r' (Si/res ? v)\a'. -rrew), is in fact a
stronger term than ol'ou, applied to character (4 ? 9 00x ole? s
fem. . ,ue? vew). Thus 'capable of lying' is a stronger term
than 'likely to lie. '
'1 do not distinguish between a statement made by an official to the
Government and one made to the newspapers. I do not understand that
a man lies when he writes to the newspapers, and that he tells the truth
when he makes an official statement. If he is capable of lying in one
case, he is capable of lying in both' (Mr. Chamberlain in Times for 12th
Aug. 1896 p. of).
