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

The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

Love truth, but pardon error.

Adversity is the first path to truth.

The past is but the beginning of a beginning, and all that is and has been is but the twilight of the dawn.

Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace...Peace will be the last word of history.

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

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.

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

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.

Peace at home is peace in the country. Peace in the country is peace in the world.

Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.

Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.

Never apologise for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologise for the truth.
