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.

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

It takes a certain ingenuous faith- but I have it -to believe that people who read and reflect more likely than not come to judge things with liberality and truth.

The happiness of society is the end of government.

Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace...Peace will be the last word of history.

Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.

Man is always prey to his truths. Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them.

To be honest, one must be inconsistent.
