Truth Quotes

Truth, like milk, arrives in the dark but even so, wise dogs don't bark. Only mongrels make it hard for the milkman to come up the yard Picture Quote #1

The reason that fiction is more interesting than any other form of literature, to those who really like to study people, is that in fiction the author can really tell the truth without humiliating himself Picture Quote #1

Some say I'm too sensitive, but the truth is I just feel too much. Every word and every action goes straight to my heart Picture Quote #1

Yes, I have tricks in my pocket, I have things up my sleeve. But I am the opposite of a stage magician. He gives you illusion that has the appearance of truth. I give you truth in the pleasant disguise of illusion Picture Quote #1

I didn't decide to run for president to start a national crusade for the political reforms I believed in, or to run a campaign as if it were some grand act of patriotism. In truth, I wanted to be president because it had become my ambition to be president Picture Quote #1

I don't think I ever expected anything like an Oscar ever, to tell you the truth. That is not my motivation when I do these roles. I really am motivated by being able to work with great people and create a body of work that I can look back and be proud of Picture Quote #1

Truth! Why shall every wretch of letters dare to speak truth against his betters! Let ragged virtue stand aloof, nor mutter accents of reproof; let ragged wit a mute become, when wealth and power would have her dumb Picture Quote #1

Thought can never be compared with action, but when it awakens in us the image of truth Picture Quote #1

Pray for and work for fullness of life above everything; full red blood in the body; full honesty and truth in the mind; and the fullness of a grateful love for the saviour in your heart Picture Quote #1

Heaven is not to sweep our truths away, but only to turn them till we see their glory, to open them till we see their truth, and to unveil our eyes till for the first time we shall really see them Picture Quote #1

Jesus chose this method of extending the knowledge of himself throughout the world; he taught his truth to a few men, and then he said, now go and tell that truth to other men Picture Quote #1

The dissident does not operate in the realm of genuine power at all. He is not seeking power. He has no desire for office and does not gather votes. He does not attempt to charm the public, he offers nothing and promises nothing. He can offer, if anything, only his own skin - and he offers it solely because he has no other way of affirming the truth he stands for. His actions simply articulate his dignity as a citizen, regardless of the cost Picture Quote #1

There is only one art, whose sole criterion is the power, the authenticity, the revelatory insight, the courage and suggestiveness with which it seeks its truth. Thus, from the standpoint of the work and its worth it is irrelevant to which political ideas the artist as a citizen claims allegiance, which ideas he would like to serve with his work or whether he holds any such ideas at all Picture Quote #1

The saviour comes in the strength of righteousness. Righteousness is at the bottom of all things. Righteousness is thorough; it is the very spirit of unsparing truth Picture Quote #1

A bureaucracy is sure to think that its duty is to augment official power, official business, or official members, rather than to leave free the energies of mankind; it overdoes the quantity of government, as well as impairs its quality. The truth is, that a skilled bureaucracy is, though it boasts of an appearance of science, quite inconsistent with the true principles of the art of business Picture Quote #1

He believes, with all his heart and soul and strength, that there is such a thing as truth; he has the soul of a martyr with the intellect of an advocate Picture Quote #1

Truth is one forever absolute, but opinion is truth filtered through the moods, the blood, the disposition of the spectator Picture Quote #1

You can always get the truth from an American statesman after he has turned seventy, or given up all hope of the presidency Picture Quote #1

A good man often appears gauche simply because he does not take advantage of the myriad mean little chances of making himself look stylish. Preferring truth to form, he is not constantly at work upon the facade of his appearance Picture Quote #1

Pray over every truth; for though the renewed heart is not desperately wicked, it is quite deceitful enough to become so, if God be forgotten a moment Picture Quote #1

We ought to reverence books; to look on them as useful and mighty things. If they are good and true, whether they are about religion, politics, farming, trade, law, or medicine, they are the message of Christ, the maker of all things - the teacher of all truth Picture Quote #1

Do not run from the truth. There be nought so hard to live with as a lie Picture Quote #1

Everybody wants me to show my vagina to the world. And the truth is, I don't have to Picture Quote #1

I don't consider my own clothing to be outrageous... The truth is that people just don't have the same references that I do. To me it's very beautiful and it's art, and to them it's outrageous and crazy Picture Quote #1

I operate from a place of delusion - that's what the fame is all about... I want people to walk around delusional about how great they can be - and then to fight so hard for it every day that the lie becomes the truth Picture Quote #1

What I've discovered is that in art, as in music, there's a lot of truth-and then there's a lie. The artist is essentially creating his work to make this lie a truth, but he slides it in amongst all the others. The tiny little lie is the moment I live for, my moment. It's the moment that the audience falls in love Picture Quote #1

All greatness affects different minds, each in its own particular kind, and the variations of testimony mark the truth of feeling Picture Quote #1

I do not think we are deceived to grow, but that the crudest fancy, slightest show, covers some separate truth that we may know. In the one truth, each separate fact is true; eternally in one I many view, and destinies through destiny pursue Picture Quote #1

The day wears heavily, - why, then, ignore it; peace is the soul's desire, - such thoughts restore it; the truth thou art, - it needs not implore it Picture Quote #1
