Of life's two chief prizes, beauty and truth, I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer's hand.

Love truth, but pardon error.

Do not trust all men, but trust men of worth; the former course is silly, the latter a mark of prudence.

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

Peace begins with a smile..

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

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

I quote others only to better express myself.

The happiness of society is the end of government.

To love truth for truth's sake is the principal part of human perfection in this world, and the seed-plot of all other virtues.

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.

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.

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

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

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

There's a world of difference between truth and facts. Facts can obscure truth.

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

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

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

The truth is more important than the facts.

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.
