How dreadful knowledge of the truth can be when there's no help in the truth.

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

Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.

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.

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 is the nature of truth in general, as of some ores in particular, to be richest when most superficial.

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

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

Truth suffers from too much analysis.

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

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

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

But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.

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.

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

There is nothing true anywhere, The true is nowhere to be seen; If you say you see the true, This seeing is not the true one.

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.

Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.

Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.

A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
