If you're not ready to die for it, take the word 'freedom' out of your vocabulary.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
The purpose of argument is to change the nature of truth.
No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth.
Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.
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.
If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.
I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.
Love truth, but pardon error.
The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.
Never apologise for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologise for the truth.
Don't keep a man guessing too long - he's sure to find the answer somewhere else
I speak the truth not so much as I would, but as much as I dare, and I dare a little more as I grow older.
Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good.
But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.
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.
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.
It is not worthy of a speaker of truth to curse people.
I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.
It is truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.
A faith that cannot survive collision with the truth is not worth many regrets.
