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

The truth is more important than the facts.

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

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

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

It isn't enough to talk about peace; one must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it; one must work at it.

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

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

When the choice is to be right or to be kind, always make the choice that brings peace

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

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

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.

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.

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

Do not trust all men, but trust men of worth; the former course is silly, the latter a mark of prudence.

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

The happiness of society is the end of government.

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

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