Today: authenticity. It goes hand in hand with hypocrisy.
Authentic
from Gk. authentikos "original, genuine, principal," from authentes "one acting on one's own authority," from autos "self" + hentes "doer, being."
Hypocrite
From Gk. hypokrisis "acting on the stage, pretense," from hypokrinesthai "play a part, pretend," also "answer," from hypo- "under" + middle voice of krinein "to sift, decide" (see crisis). The sense evolution is from "separate gradually" to "answer" to "answer a fellow actor on stage" to "play a part." Thus hypocrite (c.1225) is ult. Gk. hypokrites "actor on the stage, pretender."
That would be "Be yourself". "Drop down that bloody mask". It's hard, I know. You bloody hypocrites. You, my friends. You, my brothers and clients and torturers and victims.

There's always something beneath the mask. Only that sometimes it ain't what we'd wish to be.
