Honesty

People demand honesty from you yet refuse to accept it because they despise the truth.

There is wisdom in this quote. I have found over the years that many do not seek honesty, they are mostly wanting others to share the same perspective as their own. If enough people share their opinion the can maintain the illusion of being right.
