"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
Quotations
Truth
It's no wonder that truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.
-Mark Twain
It does not require many words to speak the truth.
-Chief Joseph
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"
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"
When truth is replaced by silence, the silence is a lie.
-Yevgeny Yevtushenko
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
But better to be hurt by the truth than be comforted with a lie.
-Khaled Hosseini
Pretty much all the honest truth telling in the world is done by children.
-Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
There are truths which one can only say after having won the right to say them.
-Jean Cocteau
