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

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.

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

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

The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism.

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

If you're not ready to die for it, take the word 'freedom' out of your vocabulary.

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

The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.

If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

A first rate soup is better than a second rate painting.

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

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.

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

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

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

The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it.

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

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.

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