Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

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

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.

But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.

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

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

I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.

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

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

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

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

The purpose of argument is to change the nature of truth.

Peace is always beautiful.

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

You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you mad.

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

The most dangerous untruths are truths slightly distorted.

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

The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.

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

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.
