Quotations
Truth
One must be very particular about telling the truth. Through truth one can realize God.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
But better to be hurt by the truth than be comforted with a lie.
-Khaled Hosseini
He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.
-Thomas Jefferson
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings
in two parts, one, 'eternal truth' and second, 'the truth relevant at that time'.
Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
-Deep Trivedi
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.
-Albert Einstein
"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
To tell the truth is very difficult, and young people are rarely capable of it.
-Leo Tolstoy
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
-Oscar Wilde
The moment you follow someone you cease to follow truth.
-J. Krishnamurti
