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

It isn't enough to talk about peace; one must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it; one must work at it.

Adversity is the first path to truth.

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.

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.

Rats and roaches live by competition under the laws of supply and demand; it is the privilege of human beings to live under the laws of justice and mercy.

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

Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.

Peace at home is peace in the country. Peace in the country is peace in the world.

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

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

It is not truth that matters, but victory

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

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

Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.

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

Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war.

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

Peace begins with a smile..

Love truth, but pardon error.

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.
