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

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

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.

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

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

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

Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.

I AM IGNORANT of absolute truth. But I am humble before my ignorance and therein lies my honor and my reward.

No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth.

Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.

The happiness of society is the end of government.

Truth is a tendency.

A faith that cannot survive collision with the truth is not worth many regrets.

Peace is not something you wish for; it is something you make, something you are, something you do, and something you give away.

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

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

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

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

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.
