Best Quotes about Truth

1.
The most natural beauty in the world is honesty and moral truth. For all beauty is truth. True features make the beauty of the face; true proportions, the beauty of architecture; true measures, the beauty of harmony and music.
Shaftesbury, Lord

2.
The truth that makes men free is for the most part the truth which men prefer not to hear.
Herbert Agar

3.
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

4.
A lie told often enough becomes the truth.
Lenin

5.
The TRUTH: It may not lead you to where you thought you were going, but it will always lead you somewhere better. When ignored, it will eventually show itself. The closeness of your relationships is directly proportional to the degree to which you have revealed the truth about yourself. It can be painful.

6.
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

7.
It is the fate of new truths to begin as heresies and end and superstitions.
Huxley, Thomas H.

8.
The fact that a great many people believe something is no guarantee of its truth.
W. Somerset Maugham

9.
To be persuasive, we must be believable. To be believable, we must be credible. To be credible, we must be truthful.
Walters, Hellmut

10.
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.

11.
Truth may be stretched, but cannot be broken, and always gets above falsehood, as oil does above water.
Cervantes, Miguel De

12.
Truth can never be told so as to be understood, and not be believed.
Blake, William

13.
Chase after truth like hell and you'll free yourself, even though you never touch its coat-tails.
Clarence Darrow

14.
Receiving a new truth is like adding a new sense.
Liebig

15.
Truth is neither alive nor dead; it just aggravates itself all the time.
Twain, Mark

16.
I want everyone to tell me the truth, even if it costs him his job.
Goldwyn, Samuel

17.
Say not, I have found the truth, but rather, I have found a truth.
Gibran, Kahlil

18.
A thing is not necessarily true because badly uttered, nor false because spoken magnificently.
Augustine, St.

19.
Too much truth is uncouth.
Adams, Franklin P.

20.
It is a pleasure to stand upon the shore, and to see ships tost upon the sea: a pleasure to stand in the window of a castle, and to see a battle and the adventures thereof below: but no pleasure is comparable to standing upon the vantage ground of truth... and to see the errors, and wanderings, and mists, and tempests, in the vale below.
Bacon, Francis

21.
While you live tell truth and shame the devil.
William Shakespeare

22.
All fixed set patterns are incapable of adaptability or pliability. The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.
Lee, Bruce

23.
Truth will come to light ... at the length, the truth will out.
William Shakespeare

24.
Truth makes many appeals, not the least of which is its power to shock.
Renard, Jules

25.
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.

26.
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

27.
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

28.
It is man that makes truth great, not truth that makes man great.
Confucius

29.
Always tell the truth -- it's the easiest thing to remember.
Mamet, David

30.
The greatest truths are the simplest, and so are the greatest men.
Hare, J. C.

31.

Matthew Arnold

32.

Einstein, Albert

33.
No matter what you believe, it doesn't change the facts.
Kersha, Al

34.

Sontag, Susan

35.
Your real boss is the one who walks around under your hat.
Hill, Napoleon

One universe made up all that is; and one God in it all, and one principle of being, and one law, the reason shared by all thinking creatures, and one truth.
Aurelius, Marcus

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)

38.
Truth is its own reward.
Plato

39.
One often makes a remark and only later sees how true it is.
Wittgenstein, Ludwig

40.
Truth does not contradict truth.
Zweifel, Elizer Zvi

41.
It is unfortunate, considering that enthusiasm moves the world, that so few enthusiasts can be trusted to speak the truth.
Balfour, Arthur James

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

43.
Peace if possible, but truth at any rate.
Luther, Martin

44.
Men in earnest have no time to waste in patching fig leaves for the naked truth.
Fuller, Max

45.
Truth is like a torch; the more it is shook it shines.
Hamilton, Sir William

46.
Mystical explanations are considered deep. The truth is that they are not even superficial.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

47.
The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie -- deliberate, contrived, and dishonest -- but the myth -- persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Kennedy, John F.

Respect for the truth comes close to being the basis for all morality.
Herbert, Frank
