You can never trust what you read

You can never trust what you read

William Goldman, the renowned American novelist, playwright, and screenwriter, once famously said, "Nobody knows anything." This quote has become a mantra for many in the entertainment industry, highlighting the unpredictable and often unreliable nature of the business. However, when it comes to Goldman's own words and writings, the sentiment of not being able to trust what you read takes on a different meaning.

Goldman was known for his wit, humor, and keen insight into human nature, which he often infused into his works. His most famous novel, "The Princess Bride," is a prime example of his ability to blend fantasy, romance, and satire into a captivating story that has stood the test of time. However, even in this beloved classic, Goldman plays with the idea of trust and deception, as the book is presented as an abridged version of a larger work by the fictional author S. Morgenstern.
