There's a world of difference between truth and facts. Facts can obscure truth.
-Maya Angelou
Quotations
Truth
The "truth" of every moment is new, different and ever changing. Hence, the
things said thousands of years ago could be true in the context of "time, situation
and circumstances" prevalent at that time, but it is not necessary that they hold
relevance even today.
-Deep Trivedi
"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
Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organised; nor should any organisation be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
One must be very particular about telling the truth. Through truth one can realize God.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. The opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.
-Niels Bohr
We want to reach not from untruth to truth, but from truth to higher truth.
-Swami Vivekananda
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
-William Blake
"Auguries of Innocence"
It is hard to believe that a man is telling the truth when you know that you would lie if you were in his place.
-H. L. Mencken
"A Little Book in C Major"
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
-Oscar Wilde
