Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.

If you have no critics you'll likely have no success.

It is truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.

I hope that real love and truth are stronger in the end than any evil or misfortune in the world.

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

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

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

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

If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.

Peace is not something you wish for; it is something you make, something you are, something you do, and something you give away.

One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.

A faith that cannot survive collision with the truth is not worth many regrets.

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.

To love truth for truth's sake is the principal part of human perfection in this world, and the seed-plot of all other virtues.

Don't keep a man guessing too long - he's sure to find the answer somewhere else

The truth is found when men are free to pursue it.

Peace is always beautiful.

Never apologise for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologise for the truth.

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

Adversity is the first path to truth.
