Quotations
Truth
Truth has always prevailed and always will, because it is the bridge between all
the contradictory powers and emotions of this world. Irrespective of the number
of ups and downs that may come, both in the energies and emotions, truth
always stands still.
-Deep Trivedi
Nothing hurts a new truth more than an old error.
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
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"
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
-Oscar Wilde
There are only two ways of telling the complete truth - anonymously and posthumously.
-Thomas Sowell
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
-Oscar Wilde
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"
All great truths begin as blasphemies.
-George Bernard Shaw
The truth is a snare: you cannot have it, without being caught. You cannot have the truth in such a way that you catch it, but only in such a way that it catches you.
-Søren Kierkegaard
