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

- Søren Kierkegaard
All great truths begin as blasphemies.
- George Bernard Shaw
Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organised; nor should any organisation be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path.
- J. Krishnamurti
If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.
- Virginia Woolf
Nothing hurts a new truth more than an old error.
- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Facts are the enemy of truth
- Miguel De Cervantes
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not; he knoweth all things but his own ignorance… To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.
- Akhenation
A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
- Winston S. Churchill
Sometimes you have to look reality in the eye and deny it.
- Garrison Keillor
