Add a few drops of venom to a half truth and you have an absolute truth.

[Quoting Ed Murrow:] "It takes two to speak the truth-one to speak and another to hear."

Such is the irresistible nature of truth that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing.

The greater amount of truth is impulsively uttered; thus the greater amount is spoken, not written.

Believing ourselves to be possessors of absolute truth degrades us: we regard every person whose way of thinking is different from ours as a monster and a threat and by so doing turn our own selves into monsters and threats to our fellows.

I have a theory that the truth is never told between the nine-to-five hours.

Truth, by whomsoever spoken, comes from God.

The first wrote, Wine is the strongest. The second wrote, The king is strongest. The third wrote, Women are strongest: but above all things Truth beareth away the victory.

We are of different opinions at different hours, but we always may be said at heart to be on the side of truth.

Wherever the truth is injured, defend it.
