Can you be a completely authentic person?

If he was real, I would guess so.

Do you believe Caesar was real?

The older I get the more authentic I get around everyone. It's that whole you stop giving a shit about what other people think the older you get.

You're confusing perfection and authenticity.

This. Obviously nobody is perfect. But people can be totally authentic

There is no perfect person, so I doubt anyone can be completely authentic all their life.

Perfect and authentic are not the same thing.

It's just not possible, there will always be mistakes of flaws in your character.

Even the more purest people you believe have a dark side.

It's just human nature.

It question itself is rather meaningless. The word person comes from the word persona, which was a mask worn by actors. So, can you wear an authentic mask? Yes, but what difference does it make if your mask is authentic or not? You're still wearing a fucking mask.

Not at all.

Nobody can. Everyone must keep certain thoughts hidden. At least if you are intelligent enough to understand why it is important to do so. If someone says yes, they are starting off by being a bit inauthentic.

I can't figure out if it's you or me that is using the word authentic weird. I don't think authentic means pure or without sin or a perfect person.
