Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also.

There is but one thing of real value—to cultivate truth and justice, and to live without anger in the midst of lying and unjust men.

Let us affirm what seems to be the truth, that, whether one is or is not, one and the others in relation to themselves and one another, all of them, in every way, are and are not, and appear to be and appear not to be.

And even a liar can be scared into telling the truth, same as honest man can be tortured into telling a life.

Only when we realize that there is no eternal, unchanging truth or absolute truth can we arouse in ourselves a sense of intellectual responsibility.

The liar is no better than the thief, and if his mendacity takes the form of slander he may be worse than most thieves. It puts a premium upon knavery untruthfully to attack an honest man, or even with hysterical exaggeration to assail a bad man with untruth.

Those who are able to see beyond the shadows and lies of their culture will never be understood, let alone believed, by the masses.
