Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.

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

I can feel guilty about the past, apprehensive about the future, but only in the present can I act. The ability to be in the present moment is a major component of mental wellness.

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

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

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

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

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

The most dangerous untruths are truths slightly distorted.

One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.

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

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

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

In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

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.

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

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

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.

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

It takes a certain ingenuous faith- but I have it -to believe that people who read and reflect more likely than not come to judge things with liberality and truth.

The truth is more important than the facts.
