Truth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Truth

1.
Turns out if you never lie, there's always someone mad at you.
Scott Westerfeld

2.
A half truth is a whole lie.
Proverb, Yiddish

3.
Truth often suffers more by the heat of its defenders than from the arguments of its opposers.
Penn, William

4.
A few observation and much reasoning lead to error; many observations and a little reasoning to truth.
Carrel, Alexis

5.
Every truth passes through three stages before it is recognized. In the first it is ridiculed, in the second it is opposed, in the third it is regarded as self evident.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

6.
It is always good policy to tell the truth unless of course you are an exceptionally good liar. Jerome K. Jerome It is a puzzling thing. The truth knocks on the door and you say, go away, I'm looking for the truth. and so it goes away. Puzzling.
Pirsig, Robert M.

7.
Truth is not beautiful, neither is ugly, Why should it be either? Truth is Truth.
Middleton, Owen C.

8.
Ceremony leads her bigots forth, prepared to fight for shadows of no worth. While truths, on which eternal things depend, can hardly find a single friend.
Cowper, William

9.
What is true by lamplight is not always true by sunlight.
Joubert, Joseph

10.
Truth lies within ourselves: it takes no rise from outward things, whatever you may believe. There is an inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness and to Know rather consists in opening out a way whence the imprisoned splendor may escape than in effecting entry for light supposed to be without.
Browning, Robert

11.
The open-minded see the truth in different things: the narrow-minded see only the differences.

12.
The basic truth of all things, as nearly as we may ever dream of determining and knowing this truth, is form, that which is, as it is. The way and shape of the thing no less than the thing itself.
Saroyan, William

13.
Truth may be stretched, but cannot be broken, and always gets above falsehood, as oil does above water.
Cervantes, Miguel De

14.
Truth will always be truth, regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief or ignorance.
Stone, W. Clement

15.
The truth is lived, not taught.
Hesse, Hermann

16.
The truth is found when men are free to pursue it.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

17.
But wonder on, till truth makes all things plain.
William Shakespeare

18.
I have done more harm by the falseness of trying to please than by the honesty of trying to hurt.
West, Jessamyn

19.
No matter what you believe, it doesn't change the facts.
Kersha, Al

20.
Believe those who are seeking truth, doubt those who find it.
Gide, Andre

21.
The true snob never rests: there is always a higher goal to attain, and there are, by the same token, always more and more people to look down upon.
Lynes, Russell

22.
Between truth and the search for it, I choose the second.
Berenson, Bernard

23.
It's essential to tell the truth at all times. This will reduce life's pain. Lying distorts reality. All forms of distorted thinking must be corrected.
Bradshaw, John

24.
The fundamental laws are in the long run merely statements that every event is itself and not some different event.
Lewis, C. S.

25.
Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself. Being true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake messiah. [The Savior's Manual]
Bach, Richard

26.
Things are as they are. Looking out into it the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations.
Watts, Alan W.

27.
I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.

28.
Truth never hurts the teller.
Browning, Robert

29.
Truth is the only safe ground to stand on.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton

30.
That in the beginning when the world was young there were a great many thoughts but no such thing as truth. Man made the truths himself and each truth was a composite of a great many vague thoughts. All about in the world were truths and they were all beautiful.
Anderson, Sherwood

31.
The truth is more important than the facts.
Frank Lloyd Wright

32.
Just because you can laugh doesn't mean you can't tell the truth. Truth is often the jester.

33.
Always tell the truth -- it's the easiest thing to remember.
Mamet, David

34.
Perhaps the truth depends on a walk around the lake.
Stevens, Wallace

35.
Truth can never be told so as to be understood, and not be believed.
Blake, William

36.
Superstition, idolatry and hypocrisy have ample wages, but the truth goes begging.
Luther, Martin

37.
To announce truths is an infallible receipt for being persecuted.
Voltaire

38.
The truth simply is that's all. It doesn't need reasons: it doesn't have to be right: it's just the truth. Period.
Frieseke, Frederick (Carl)

39.
The pursuit of truth will set you free; even if you never catch up with it.
Darrow, Clarence

40.
Say not, I have found the truth, but rather, I have found a truth.
Gibran, Kahlil

41.
Effective thinking consists of being able to arrive at the truth; truth being defined as that which exists.
Hall, Calvin S.

42.
Though I can make my extravaganzas appear credible, I cannot make the truth appear so.
Shaw, George Bernard

43.
Nothing is poorer than a truth expressed as it was thought. Committed to writing in such cases, it is not even a bad photograph. Truth wants to be startled abruptly, at one stroke, from her self-immersion, whether by uproar, music or cries for help.
Benjamin, Walter

44.
The greatest truths are the simplest, and so are the greatest men.
Hare, J. C.

45.
Truth fears nothing but concealment.
Proverb

46.
Love truth, and pardon error.
Voltaire

47.
The truth only irritates those it enlightens, but does not convert.
Quesnel, Pasquier

48.
Truth and virtue conquer.
Motto

49.
It is your work to clear away the mass of encumbering material of thoughts, so that you may bring into plain view the precious thing at the center of the mass.
Collier, Robert

50.
I tell the truth, not as much as I would like to, but as much as I dare. I dare more and more as I grow older.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
