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

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.

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

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

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

Truth is a tendency.

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.

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

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

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

The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.

The happiness of society is the end of government.

Peace begins with a smile..

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

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.

If someone thinks that peace and love are just a cliche that must have been left behind in the 60s, that's a problem. Peace and love are eternal.

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

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.

Peace is always beautiful.

Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.
