My mother taught me that when you stand in the truth and someone tells a lie about you, don't fight it.

Hard times arouse an instinctive desire for authenticity.

Facts are many, but the truth is one.

The water in a vessel is sparkling the water in the sea is dark. The small truth has words which are clear the great truth has great silence.

For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth to know the worst and provide for it.

It is always the best policy to speak the truth, unless, of course, you are an exceptionally good liar.

The truth is more important than the facts.

Tell me I'm clever, Tell me I'm kind, Tell me I'm talented, Tell me I'm cute, Tell me I'm sensitive, Graceful and wise, Tell me I'm perfect - But tell me the truth.

Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't goin' away.

Truth will always be truth, regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief or ignorance.
