can you handle truth?

I pretty much disagree with this comment: “People want to know you’re human, but not much more.” quote from an article about transparent ministers in the Fall 2002 issue of Leadership; note the perspective about guarded transparency is (1) from an older generation of pastors, (2) the quote is from a pastor of Scandinavian background and/or context [a "successful" one at that, but in a context that doesn't value total transparency].. perhaps another quote, from Jack Nicholson, is an apt response, to those who don’t want to know or refuse to make known: “You can’t handle the truth.”
