Quotations
Truth
If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.
-Virginia Woolf
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"
Truth never comes where lust and fame and greed of gain resides.
-Swami Vivekananda
Three things can not hide for long: the Moon, the Sun and the Truth.
-Gautama Buddha
One must be very particular about telling the truth. Through truth one can realize God.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The moment you follow someone you cease to follow truth.
-J. Krishnamurti
When truth is divided, errors multiply.
-Eli Siegel
He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.
-Thomas Jefferson
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
-Oscar Wilde
