Like all dreamers, I confused disenchantment with truth.
Life is short, and truth works far and lives long: let us speak the truth.
Let not men think there is no truth but in the sciences that they study, or the books that they read.
Let a man get up and say, “Behold, this is the truth,” and instantly I perceive a sandy cat filching a piece of fish in the background. Look, you have forgotten the cat, I say.
Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also.
Judgments, valuations with regard to life, for or against, can ultimately never be true: they only possess value as symptoms, they only come into consideration as symptoms, — in themselves such judgments are follies.
It’s hard to be disappointed when what you expected turns out to be true.
It’s amazing how much distance one truth can create between two people.
It’s always best to tell the truth. One lie involves you in such a lot of lies – and continuous lying is so monotonous.
It will never be possible by pure reason to arrive at some absolute truth.
It was wise to beware of people who were not telling the truth.
It takes two to speak the truth: one to speak, and another to hear.
