TRUTH

There are no new truths, but only truths that have not been recognized by those who have perceived them without noticing. A truth is something that everyone can be shown to know and to have known, as people say, all along.

Mary Therese McCarthy

Author and critic


Remember: One lie does not cost you one truth but the truth.

Friedrich Hebbel
(1813–1863)
Dramatist and poet

Prince Charles of Wales
