The 3 Categories of Lies
1. Lying by commission entails the active use of false statements, such as claiming the faulty transmission on a car "works great".

2. Lying by omission involves holding back relevant information—for example, by failing to mention any information at all about a faulty transmission.

3. Paltering involves the use of truthful statements to convey a mistaken impression—such as, “we just had the car gone over by a professional mechanic and it checked out great.” While this statement may be 100% true, it is not the 100% truth. It is being used to hide another bit of information which is, “I know the transmission is on its last leg, even if the mechanic missed it. In fact, that’s why I’m getting rid of the car!”
