Quotations
Truth
It is hard to believe that a man is telling the truth when you know that you would lie if you were in his place.
- H. L. Mencken
The greatest homage we can pay truth is to use it.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
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
There are truths which one can only say after having won the right to say them.
- Jean Cocteau
"Truth" is not an act done at the physical level or an act performed driven by
emotions. Truth is the outcome of that particular action. If someone has used
abusive language for your betterment, then how did he abuse you?... He has
only desired a positive change in you.
- Deep Trivedi
There is no evil that cannot be done by the liar, who has transgressed the one law of truthfulness and who is indifferent to the world beyond.
- Dhammapada
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
- William Blake
In the lie of truth lies the truth.
- Dejan Stojanović
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
- Oscar Wilde
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
