I can feel guilty about the past, apprehensive about the future, but only in the present can I act. The ability to be in the present moment is a major component of mental wellness.

The truth is more important than the facts.

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

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

Adversity is the first path to truth.

Everything should be as simple as it is, but not simpler.

Love truth, but pardon error.

I speak the truth not so much as I would, but as much as I dare, and I dare a little more as I grow older.

Those who cry the loudest are not always the ones who are hurt the most.

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

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

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

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

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

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.

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.

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 truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.

Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.

Truth suffers from too much analysis.
