Truth, like light, blinds. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Truth is beautiful, without doubt; but so are lies.
To attempt seeing Truth without knowing Falsehood. It is the attempt to see the Light without knowing the Darkness. It cannot be.
Truth is eternal, unchanging, though circumstances may and do operate to give a different colour to it, in our view, at different times. And truth will prevail, and those who do not yield to it must be destroyed by it.
A truth that disheartens because it is true is of more value than the most stimulating of falsehoods.
Falsehood has an infinity of combinations, but truth has only one mode of being.
The false is nothing but an imitation of the true.
All your life, you live so close to truth, it becomes a permanent blur in the corner of your eye. And when something nudges it into outline, it is like being ambushed by a grotesque.
A liar begins with making falsehood appear like truth, and ends with making truth itself appear like falsehood.
There is no truth. There is only perception.
Beyond a doubt truth bears the same relation to falsehood as light to darkness.
