Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

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.

Adversity is the first path to truth.

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

You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you mad.

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

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

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.

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

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

No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth.

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

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

Peace is always beautiful.

Love truth, but pardon error.

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

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

There is nothing so powerful as truth - and often nothing so strange.

A conscience without God is like a court without a judge.

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
