A fact never went into partnership with a miracle. Truth scorns the assistance of wonders. A fact will fit every other fact in the universe and that is how you can tell whether it is or is not a fact. A lie will not fit anything except another lie.
When I tell the truth it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it but for the sake of defending those that do.
Everything deep is also simple and can be reproduced simply as long as its reference to the whole truth is maintained. But what matters is not what is witty but what is true.

To be outspoken is easy when you do not wait to speak the complete truth.
We often want one thing and pray for another not telling the truth even to the gods.
If you shut the door to all errors truth will be shut out.
If there were only one truth you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
When you stretch the truth watch out for the snapback.
I never gave anybody hell! I just told the truth and they thought it was hell.
If you seek truth you will not seek victory by dishonorable means and if you find truth you will become invincible.
Not being known doesn't stop the truth from being true.

Proverbs are always platitudes until you have personally experienced the truth of them.
Beyond a doubt truth bears the same relation to falsehood as light to darkness.

Truth lives in fact for the most part on a credit system. Our thoughts and beliefs pass so long as nothing challenges them just as bank-notes pass so long as nobody refuses them.
Those thoughts are truth which guide us to beneficial interaction with sensible particulars as they occur whether they copy these in advance or not.
We've used up a lot of bullets. And we talk about stimulus. But the truth is we're running a federal deficit that's 9 percent of GDP. That is stimulative as all get out. It's more stimulative than any policy we've followed since World War II.
