The dictionary defines truth as the true or actual state of a matter, while defining honesty as being honourable in principles, intentions and actions. One can be truthful in what they say, but not honest in their intent. For example: "Do these jeans make me look fat?" "No, the jeans don't make you look fat!" (The responder is telling the truth, it's not the jeans that make the wearer look fat. But if they were being honest they would have replied, "No, the jeans don't make you look fat - it's just you that's fat!")
