I can feel guilty about the past, apprehensive about the future, but only in the present can I act. The ability to be in the present moment is a major component of mental wellness.

Adversity is the first path to truth.

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

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

Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good.

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.

Truth suffers from too much analysis.

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

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

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

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

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

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.

One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

The trust of the innocent is the liar's most useful tool.

Don't keep a man guessing too long - he's sure to find the answer somewhere else

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

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