The happiness of society is the end of government.

But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.

The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.

If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.

Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.

The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.

Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.

Rats and roaches live by competition under the laws of supply and demand; it is the privilege of human beings to live under the laws of justice and mercy.

Truth, like light blind. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object.

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

Love truth, but pardon error.

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.

The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection.

Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war.

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
