Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.

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.

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.

The truth is more important than the facts.

Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable.

Adversity is the first path to truth.

Do not trust all men, but trust men of worth; the former course is silly, the latter a mark of prudence.

Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.

Truth suffers from too much analysis.

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

Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.

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

Truth can never be told so as to be understood and not be believed.

The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection.

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

It takes a certain ingenuous faith- but I have it -to believe that people who read and reflect more likely than not come to judge things with liberality and truth.

Love truth, but pardon error.

Truth is a tendency.

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.

Peace is always beautiful.

There is no 'way to peace,' there is only 'peace.
