Truth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Truth

1.
Truth is its own reward.
Plato

2.
There are few nudities so objectionable as the naked truth.
Agnes Repplier

3.
The idea that truth always triumphs over persecution is one of those pleasant falsehoods, which most experience refutes. History is teeming with instances of truth put down by persecution. If not put down forever, it may be set back for centuries.
Mill, John Stuart

4.
The fact that a great many people believe something is no guarantee of its truth.
W. Somerset Maugham

5.
Always tell the truth -- it's the easiest thing to remember.
Mamet, David

6.
I believe that it is better to tell the truth than a lie. I believe it is better to be free than to be a slave. And I believe it is better to know than to be ignorant.
Mencken, H. L.

7.
Truth can be a dangerous thing. It is quite patient and relentless.
Richards, R. Scott

8.
When I tell any truth it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those who do.
Blake, William

9.
We catch on to the truth and technique of expectation in those rare moments when we are stirred by an awareness of a guidance seemingly higher and greater than our own, when for a little while we are taken over by a force and an intelligence above and beyond those commonly felt. Confident and free, filled with wonder and ready acceptance, we permit ourselves to be taken over by our unquestioning self.
Bach, Dr. Marcus

10.
This does not make the authors of those narratives liars; it makes them servants of fallible human memory and perception.
Tom Bissell

11.
Truth sits upon the lips of dying men.
Matthew Arnold

12.
You never see what you want to see, forever playing to the gallery.
Davies, Robertson

13.
The great seal of truth is simplicity.
Boerhaave, Herman

14.
As one may bring himself to believe almost anything he is inclined to believe, it makes all the difference whether we begin or end with the inquiry, What is truth?
Whately, Richard

15.
The stream of time sweeps away errors, and leaves the truth for the inheritance of humanity.
Brandes, George

16.
Truth is always the strongest argument.
Sophocles

17.
The dissident does not operate in the realm of genuine power at all. He is not seeking power. He has no desire for office and does not gather votes. He does not attempt to charm the public, he offers nothing and promises nothing. He can offer, if anything, only his own skin -- and he offers it solely because he has no other way of affirming the truth he stands for. His actions simply articulate his dignity as a citizen, regardless of the cost.
Havel, Vaclav

18.
The truth that makes men free is for the most part the truth which men prefer not to hear.
Herbert Agar

19.
Whoever undertakes to set himself up as judge in the field of truth and knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the Gods.
Einstein, Albert

20.
Though I can make my extravaganzas appear credible, I cannot make the truth appear so.
Shaw, George Bernard

21.
Truth isn't always beauty, but the hunger for it is.
Gordimer, Nadine

22.
The truth is rarely pure, and never simple
Wilde, Oscar

23.
Time is precious, but truth is more precious than time.
Disraeli, Benjamin

24.
Chase after the truth like all hell and you'll free yourself, even though you never touch its coat tails.
Darrow, Clarence

25.
Those are weaklings who know the truth and uphold it as long as it suits their purpose, and then abandon it.
Pascal, Blaise

26.
It is the truth that irritates a person.
Proverb, Spanish

27.
Truth is truth to the end of reckoning.
William Shakespeare

28.
Say not, I have found the truth, but rather, I have found a truth.
Gibran, Kahlil

29.
All necessary truth is its own evidence.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

30.
Have a deep respect for the source of life and also for the ocean, for the forest, for the stars and for the truth.

31.
Plato is dear to me, but dearer still is truth.
Aristotle

32.
The least initial deviation from the truth is multiplied later a thousandfold.
Aristotle

33.
Turns out if you never lie, there's always someone mad at you.
Scott Westerfeld

34.
Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing happened.
Churchill, Winston

35.
Truth is reality.
Richards, Mary Caroline

36.
How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

37.
What is true by lamplight is not always true by sunlight.
Joubert, Joseph

38.
When the dictators and the opportunists are gone, the cross will still stand before us and something in us will say, That is the real thing.
Sockman, Ralph W.

39.
Mental fight means thinking against the current, not with it. It is our business to puncture gas bags and discover the seeds of truth.
Woolf, Virginia

40.
The truth is more important than the facts.
Frank Lloyd Wright

41.
Truth is like a torch; the more it is shook it shines.
Hamilton, Sir William

42.
If ever we hear a case of lying, we must look for a severe parents. A lie would have no sense unless the truth were felt as dangerous.
Alder, Alfred

43.
I have been truthful all along the way. The truth is more interesting, and if you tell the truth you never have to cover your tracks.
Real Live Preacher

44.
Truth will come to light ... at the length, the truth will out.
William Shakespeare

45.
Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.
Sabbah

46.
There are trivial truths and the great truths. The opposite of a trivial truth is plainly false. The opposite of a great truth is also true.
Bohr, Niels

47.
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it and ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.
Churchill, Winston

48.
The ultimate aim of the human mind, in all its efforts, is to become acquainted with Truth.
Farnham, Eliza

49.
When truth is discovered by someone else, it loses something of its attractiveness.
Solzhenitsyn, Alexander

50.
Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.
Einstein, Albert
