الوصف: In this paper I explore the duties we have as believers and communicators of be- liefs. I maintain that we have a duty regarding to what Williams (2002) calls the two vir- tues of truth: accuracy and sincerity. We ought to be reliable in forming our beliefs, and we ought to transmit what we really believe. I defend two principles, one for each of these two virtues, that, in my opinion, are at the same time epistemic and moral. With re- gard to accuracy I propose a variant of Clifford's principle, and according to sincerity I propose that to assert that p, one has not only to believe that p but also accept that p.
