Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.

It is not truth that matters, but victory

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

The happiness of society is the end of government.

Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.

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

Truth, like light blind. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object.

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

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

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

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

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

Anything worth doing is worth doing slowly.

The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head.

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

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

There is nothing true anywhere, The true is nowhere to be seen; If you say you see the true, This seeing is not the true one.

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.

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

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.
