Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.

Truth is a tendency.

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

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

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

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.

If you have no critics you'll likely have no success.

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

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

A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.

It is not worthy of a speaker of truth to curse people.

Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.

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

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

Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.

It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.

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

It is not truth that matters, but victory

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.

Those who cry the loudest are not always the ones who are hurt the most.
