Quotations
Truth
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.
-Albert Einstein
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"
An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.
-Mahatma Gandhi
Tell the truth, or someone will tell it for you.

If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.

The rarest quality in an epitaph is truth.
