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

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

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

Everything should be as simple as it is, but not simpler.

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

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

If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.

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.

Of life's two chief prizes, beauty and truth, I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer's hand.

A conscience without God is like a court without a judge.

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.

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

Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.

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

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

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

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

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

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

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

The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.
