Untruth being unacceptable to the mind of man, there is no other defence left for absurdity but obscurity.
John Locke
Image
While everything around me is ever changing, ever dying, there is underlying that change a living power that is changeless, that holds all together, that creates, dissolves and recreates.... For I can see in the midst of death, life persists, in the midst of untruth, truth persists, in the midst of darkness light persists.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
If you take part of the truth, and try to make that part of the truth, all of the truth, then that part of the truth becomes an untruth.
Adrian Rogers
Image
Insistence on truth can come into play when one party practices untruth or injustice. Only then can love be tested. True friendship is put to the test only when one party disregards the obligation of friendship.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Truth, like light is dazzling. By contrast, untruth is a beautiful sunset that enhances everything.

We have only one consciousness stream. When we associate with Truth, we ascend upwards, and when we associate with untruth we fall down.
Tulsi
Image
Even a little untruth destroys a man, as a drop of poison ruins milk.
Mahatma Gandhi

One should stick by one's soul, and by nothing else. In one's soul, one knows the truth from the untruth, and life from death. And if one betrays one's own soul-knowledge one is the worst of traitors.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
Nothing gives such a blow to friendship as the detecting another in an untruth. It strikes at the root of our confidence ever after.
William Hazlitt
Image
The humorous writer professes to awaken and direct your love, your pity, your kindness--your scorn for untruth, pretension, imposture....He takes upon himself to be the week-day preacher.
Mark Twain
Image
It was possible, maybe, to have facts in your mind that weren't facts at all. You could build a whole life's story on false assumptions. You could make truths out of untruths and untruths out of truths. Until you spoke them, really said them out loud or checked for sure, you may not have known which were which.
Deb Caletti
Image
Do not discuss the religious matters with people do not waste your valuable time to discuss the untruth! Your time is short spend it for the science and the art!
Mehmet Murat Ildan

Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Seek truth! Seek truth in the darkness, under the oceans, above the clouds seek it everywhere and every time! Stop deceiving yourself with the untruth, seek the truth!
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Image
Truth is always truth, untruth is always untruth. This is what matters, this is right desire.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Parliament must not be told a direct untruth, but its quite possible to allow them to mislead themselves.
Norman Tebbit
Image
Being in a minority, even in a minority of one, did not make you mad. There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.
George Orwell
Image
A man may think an untruth as well as speak one.
Richard Brinsley Sheridan
Image
The enemies of intellectual liberty always try to present their case as a plea for discipline versus individualism. The issue truth-versus-untruth is as far as possible kept in the background.
George Orwell
Image
Nothing creates such untruth in you as the wish to please.
