The truth is an offense, but not a sin.

Quotations
Truth
Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
When the force of the desire for Truth blossoms, selfish desires wither away, just like darkness vanishes before the radiance of the light of dawn.
-Adi Shankara "Adi Shankara"
Tell the truth, or someone will tell it for you.
-Stephanie Klein
"Straight Up and Dirty: A Memoir"
Truth is not determined by majority vote.
-Anonymous
One must be very particular about telling the truth. Through truth one can realize God.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
"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
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 "Akhenation, 14 century Egyptian king"
When truth is discovered by someone else, it loses something of its attractiveness.
-Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.
-Mark Twain
