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

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.

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

Truth suffers from too much analysis.

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

Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

If someone thinks that peace and love are just a cliche that must have been left behind in the 60s, that's a problem. Peace and love are eternal.

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

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

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

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

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

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

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.

The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it.

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

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

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

Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.
