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.

The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism.

Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.

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

Man is always prey to his truths. Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them.

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

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.

If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.

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

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

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

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

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.

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.

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.

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

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

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

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

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