Quotations
Truth
Half a truth is often a great lie.
-Benjamin Franklin
Truth hurts - not the searching after; the running from!
-Anonymous
There are ways from light into darkness and from darkness into light. There are ways, also, from the gloom into deeper darkness, and from the dawn into brighter light. The wise man will use the light he has to receive more light. He will constantly advance in the knowledge of truth.
-Gautama Buddha "Gautama Buddha"
Truth is not determined by majority vote.
-Anonymous
When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable must be the truth.
-Arthur Conan Doyle
When truth is replaced by silence, the silence is a lie.
-Yevgeny Yevtushenko
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not; he knoweth all things but his own ignorance… To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.
-Akhenation "Akhenation, 14 century Egyptian king"
If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.
-Virginia Woolf
It's no wonder that truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.
-Mark Twain
