Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

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

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

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

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.

I AM IGNORANT of absolute truth. But I am humble before my ignorance and therein lies my honor and my reward.

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

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

The purpose of argument is to change the nature of truth.

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

The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.

Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.

Truth can never be told so as to be understood and not be believed.

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

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.

It is not worthy of a speaker of truth to curse people.

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

I believe we are here on the planet Earth to live, grow up and do what we can to make this world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom.

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

Anything worth doing is worth doing slowly.

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