The greatest homage we can pay truth is to use it.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Quotations
Truth
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
If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.
-Virginia Woolf
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
-Oscar Wilde
This deep self-confidence, uncompromising quest for Truth is a lesson for all of us.
-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Tyagarupananda"
He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.
-Thomas Jefferson
The "truth" of every moment is new, different and ever changing. Hence, the
things said thousands of years ago could be true in the context of "time, situation
and circumstances" prevalent at that time, but it is not necessary that they hold
relevance even today.
-Deep Trivedi
"Truth" is not an act done at the physical level or an act performed driven by
emotions. Truth is the outcome of that particular action. If someone has used
abusive language for your betterment, then how did he abuse you?... He has
only desired a positive change in you.
-Deep Trivedi
Pain reaches the heart with electrical speed, but truth moves to the heart as slowly as a glacier.
-Barbara Kingsolver
"Animal Dreams"
The truth is not for all men, but only for those who seek it.
-Ayn Rand
