Truth is the ultimate power. When the truth comes around, all the lies have to run and hide.

The one thing I was always told is you absolutely have to tell truth to power. Whether you're a second lieutenant working with a captain and a lieutenant colonel, or a four-star general working with the Office Secretary of Defense and the White House, the decision makers have got to have ground truth.

Power is like being a lady... if you have to tell people you are, you aren't.

There is no power on earth more formidable than the truth.

I'm someone who believes the truth needs to be heard. And if I'm empowered with the truth, I'm not going to shut up.

Once you have power, you are inevitably surrounded by people who have their own agendas and will tell you whatever advances them.

Truth is powerful and it prevails.

I have more influence now than when I had the power.

Power is domination, control, and therefore a very selective form of truth which is a lie.

All I've ever done is try to get at the truth of the matter.
