Truth


 It is man that makes truth great, not truth that makes man great

 It is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes... we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions - especially selfish ones.
  Alexander Solzhenitsyn

 It is not the oath that makes us believe the man, but the man the oath
  Aeschylus

 It is proof of a base and low mind for one to wish to think with the masses or majority, merely because the majority is the majority. Truth does not change because it is, or is not, believed by a majority of the people.
  Giordano Bruno

 It is the nature of truth in general, as of some ores in particular, to be richest when most superficial.
  Edgar Allan Poe

 It is the true office of history to represent the events themselves, together with the counsels, and to leave the observations and conclusions thereupon to the liberty and faculty of every man's judgment
  Francis Bacon, Sr.

 It is true, I deny the incomprehensible Trinity, and the fable regarding the fall of man, which is absurd in our day. It is true, I deny the sacrilegious story of a God born of a virgin to redeem the race.
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

 It is true, I never assisted the sun materially in his rising, but doubt not, it was of the last importance only to be present at it
  Henry David Thoreau

 It is very pious to say and prudent to affirm that the holy Bible can never speak untruth -- whenever its true meaning is understood. But I believe nobody will deny that it is often very abstruse, and may say things which are quite different from wha
  Galileo Galilei

 It is with regret that I pronounce the fatal truth: Louis ought to perish rather than a hundred thousand virtuous citizens; Louis must die that the country may live
  Maximilien Francois Robespierre

 It takes two to speak truth, one to speak and another to hear.
  Henry David Thoreau

 It's easy to cry 'bug' when the truth is that you've got a complex system and sometimes it takes a while to get all the components to co-exist peacefully

 It's no wonder that truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.
  Mark Twain

 Let us be true: this is the highest maxim of art and of life, the secret of eloquence and of virtue, and of all moral authority
  Henri Frederic Amiel

 Let us talk sense to the American people. Let us tell them the truth, that there are no gains without pains.
  Adlai E. Stevenson
