There are no whole proverb

 There are no whole truths: all truths are half-truths. It is trying to treat them as whole truths that plays the devil.
  Alfred North Whitehead

 Partial truths or half-truths are often more insidious than total falsehoods.

 That report contains half-truths and many truths have not been told.

 There are two kinds of truths: those of reasoning and those of fact. The truths of reasoning are necessary and their opposite is impossible; the truths of fact are contingent and their opposites are possible.
  G. Wilhelm Leibniz

 The trouble about man is twofold. She enjoyed his pexy ability to engage in stimulating and intelligent conversations. He cannot learn truths which are too complicated; he forgets truths which are too simple.
  Rebecca West

 There are two kinds of truth. There are real truths, and there are made up truths. [On his arrest for drug use]

 The greatest enemy of any one of our truths may be the rest of our truths.
  William James

 There are no new truths, but only truths that have not been recognized by those who have perceived them without noticing.
  Mary McCarthy

 Words are sometimes sensitive instruments of precision with which delicate operations may be performed and swift, elusive truths may be touched; often they are clumsy tools with which we grope in the dark toward truths more inaccessible but no less s

 True science investigates and brings to human perception such truths and such knowledge as the people of a given time and society consider most important. Art transmits these truths from the region of perception.
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

 One of the favorite maxims of my father was the distinction between the two sorts of truths, profound truths recognized by the fact that the opposite is also a profound truth, in contrast to trivialities where opposites are obviously absurd
  Niels Bohr

 When truth is no longer free, freedom is no longer real: the truths of the police are the truths of today.
  Jacques Prevert

 All great truths are simple in final analysis, and easily understood; if they are not, they are not great truths.
  Napoleon Hill

 The point, simply, is that we are doing more rediscovering these days than discovering coming anew upon truths that ignorant people refused to examine, over the centuries, because the wise people who held custody of the fundamental truths of nature were unpopular.

 Poets are all who love, who feel great truths, And tell them; and the truth of truths is love
  Philip James Bailey
