Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.
-Mark Twain
Quotations
Truth
If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted as true were really true, there would be little hope of advancement.
-Orville Wright
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 "Dhammapada 176"
When truth is replaced by silence, the silence is a lie.
-Yevgeny Yevtushenko
One must be very particular about telling the truth. Through truth one can realize God.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Birth is an illusion, so is death. Truth is the element which makes both these
extremes of life meet. The day you recognize it, from then onwards, whenever,
whatever and how much ever you desire...you will get it.
-Deep Trivedi
It takes two to speak the truth: one to speak, and another to hear.
-Henry David Thoreau
Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it.
-André Gide
We want to reach not from untruth to truth, but from truth to higher truth.
-Swami Vivekananda
"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
