Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good.
Rats and roaches live by competition under the laws of supply and demand; it is the privilege of human beings to live under the laws of justice and mercy.
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.
The most dangerous untruths are truths slightly distorted.
The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.
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.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
I believe we are here on the planet Earth to live, grow up and do what we can to make this world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom.
There is no 'way to peace,' there is only 'peace.
Truth is a tendency.
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.
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 lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.
One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.
The truth is more important than the facts.
The past is but the beginning of a beginning, and all that is and has been is but the twilight of the dawn.
Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.
Peace is not something you wish for; it is something you make, something you are, something you do, and something you give away.
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.
