Ok, here goes. A little story.
Quote:
In some country far far away, there lived a cruel king. And this king hears an impossible rumour: namely that his wife and his most trusted adviser were carrying on, scandalously so. The kind calls his adviser and asks:
"Is it true? Yes or no. Do not lie!"
"No, it is not, Your Most Royal Highness. I would never do such a heinous act of treachery," the adviser replies.
"I do not believe you. But, seeing that you are my most trusted minister, I will give you a chance to redeem yourself: you have three days to think your answer through. At the end of these three days you will tell me one sentence. Be careful, your life will depend on it. If you lie you to me, I will know and you will be beheaded. Nothing but the truth will spare your life."
Three days later, the king and his adviser meet again. What does the latter say to save his and his lover's life?
