The Truth Is Rarely Pure And Never Simple

“The truth is not always beautiful, nor beautiful words the truth.”

“Sometimes it is harder to accede to a thing than it is to see its truth.”

“Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.”

“Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.”

“Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.”

“A man is never more truthful than when he acknowledges himself a liar.”
