Truth is not virtue,
but the lack of vices.
The most common and
the most widely used deceit is the wish to deceive not other people, but yourself.
And this kind of life is the most harmful.
There are thousands of ways which lead to deception, and
there is only one way which leads to the truth.
— Jean Jacques Rousseau
People should follow only the indisputable truth.
— Confucius
Truthfulness is the only real currency which circulates
everywhere.
— Chinese Proverb
Let us be truthful. This is the mystery of rhetoric and
virtue, this is the biggest mystery, this is the highest achievement in art and
the major law of life.
— Henri Amiel
One of the most common mistakes is to think that you can
live without truth. The inner and outer consequences of even the smallest lies
are usually more harmful than those small unpleasant things which result from
telling the truth directly.
