There are ways from light into darkness and from darkness into light. There are ways, also, from the gloom into deeper darkness, and from the dawn into brighter light. The wise man will use the light he has to receive more light. He will constantly advance in the knowledge of truth.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
-Oscar Wilde
God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
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.
The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it.
-Ayn Rand
Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it.
-André Gide
It takes two to speak the truth: one to speak, and another to hear.
-Henry David Thoreau
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.
All great truths begin as blasphemies.
-George Bernard Shaw
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
-William Blake
"Auguries of Innocence"
