Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.

It is not truth that matters, but victory

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

The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.

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

I believe we are here on the planet Earth to live, grow up and do what we can to make this world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom.

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

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

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

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

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

Love truth, but pardon error.

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

Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war.

Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good.

To love truth for truth's sake is the principal part of human perfection in this world, and the seed-plot of all other virtues.

The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.

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

Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace...Peace will be the last word of history.

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