Danforth

Explanation:

This is a statement said by Judge Danforth in the play "The Crucible." In "The Crucible," we learn that Judge Danforth is an extremely strict man who wants to adhere to the law as perfectly as possible. This is the case even when the trials at Salem are revealed to be a complete sham. This statement is ironic as Danforth claims he does not deal in lies, while the whole trial has been led by nothing but lies.
