The truth matters. Sometimes it’s the only weapon that we have against the powerful men who are trying to shut us up.
The truth is a cleansing fire which burns away the lies we’ve told each other and the lies we’ve told ourselves. So that love and hate, pleasure and pain, can all be expressed without shame. Where there is no good or bad, there is only the truth.
The only way to view the truth of life, is to stand apart from it, to see the consequence of every thought, every action. But still, we are bound by time and space, unable to steer our destiny.
The best liars always tell the truth.
Sometimes you need to hear a lie to see the truth.
Sometimes it’s okay to bend the truth if it helps someone you love.
It’s easier to stay silent than it is to speak truth.
In a just world, I’d be shot for my lies, but not for this, not for the truth.[to Charkov]
If you go looking for the truth, get the whole thing. It’s like a good f***. Half is worse than none at all.
Getting information is one thing, but how it was created, where and by whom, can often be illuminating.
Eventually, we all need to look ourselves in the mirror and realize who we really are.
A lie with a heart of truth is a powerful thing.
