Josephine Tey in The Daughter of Time:
It is an odd think, but when you tell someone the true facts of a mythical tale they are not with the teller but with you. They don’t want to have their ideas upset.
Aside:
I wonder if I somehow inadvertently got some kind of bootleg copy. Per the cover, it was printed in Columbia, SC, on 2020-11-08, but it bears no publishers imprint and the pages are numbers, nor are there any chapter headings.
The quotation, in any event, rings true.
