If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted as true is really true, there would be little hope of advance.

But'tis strange and oftentimes, to win us to our harm, the instruments of darkness tell us truths, win us with honest trifles, to betray's in deepest consequence.
William Shakespeare

Falsehood is cowardice, the truth courage.
Ballou, Hosea

Pancoast, Mal

21.
A platitude is simply a truth repeated till people get tired of hearing it.

Nin, Anais

23.
The least initial deviation from the truth is multiplied later a thousandfold.
Aristotle

What is true belongs to me!
Seneca

26.
The truth is balance. However the opposite of truth, which is unbalance, may not be a lie.
Sontag, Susan

David Shore

We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter.

Whenever you have truth it must be given with love, or the message and the messenger will be rejected.
Gandhi, Mahatma

Truth alone wounds.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

Say not,'I have found the truth,'but rather,'I have found a truth.'
Kahlil Gibran

34.
The truth is always a compound of two half- truths, and you never reach it, because there is always something more to say.
Tom Stoppard

35.
I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.

36.
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it and ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.
Churchill, Winston

37.
Not being known doesn't stop the truth from being true.
Bach, Richard

38.
The fundamental laws are in the long run merely statements that every event is itself and not some different event.

The truth has a million faces, but there is only one truth.
Hesse, Hermann

40.
Truth is always strange, stranger than fiction.
Byron, Lord

41.
A man that seeks truth and loves it must be reckoned precious to any human society.
Epictetus

42.
Truth often suffers more by the heat of its defenders than from the arguments of its opposers.
Penn, William

I want everyone to tell me the truth, even if it costs him his job.
