Truth is a tendency.

If someone thinks that peace and love are just a cliche that must have been left behind in the 60s, that's a problem. Peace and love are eternal.

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

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

I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.

I quote others only to better express myself.

I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.

Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.

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

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.

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

When the choice is to be right or to be kind, always make the choice that brings peace

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

A first rate soup is better than a second rate painting.

Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.

Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable.

The past is but the beginning of a beginning, and all that is and has been is but the twilight of the dawn.

Love truth, but pardon error.

Tell the truth boldly, whether it hurts or not. Never pander to weakness. If truth is too much for intelligent people and sweeps them away, let them go; the sooner the better.

Truth suffers from too much analysis.

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
