The exception for telling the truth is when you deal with someome where lying helps the situation.  The example given was Shakespeare illustrates how the two lovers lie to one another about certain aspects of themselves (like their age), but it it okay because they both know that they are lying to each other.  Lying is used to protect people from knowing certain things, which can sometimes be a good thing.
