Take me and cast me where you will; for there I shall keep my divine part tranquil, that is, content, if it can feel and act conformably to its proper constitution.

Now it is in my power to let no badness be in this soul, nor desire nor any perturbation at all; but looking at all things, I see their true nature, and I use each according to its value.

If someone is able to show me that what I think or do is not right, I will happily change, for I seek the truth, by which no one was ever truly harmed. It is the person who continues in his self-deception and ignorance who is harmed.

Live out your life in truth and justice, tolerant of those who are neither true nor just.

Just that you do the right thing. The rest doesn’t matter.

Discard your misperceptions. Stop being jerked like a puppet. Limit yourself to the present.

How trivial the things we want so passionately are.

Truth comes when your mind and heart are purged of all sense of striving and you are no longer trying to become somebody; it is there when the mind is very quiet, listening timelessly to everything.

If you want to truth to stand clear before you, never be for or against. The struggle between “for” and “against” is the mind’s worst disease.

The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.

Independent inquiry is needed in your search for truth, not dependence on anyone else’s view or a mere book.

Truth cannot be structured or confined. When there is no center and no circumference, then there is truth.

“Remember that we cannot judge the moral value of any action by how we feel. Our feelings are unreliable and cannot be trusted to convey truth.” 

“The truth is always revealed through the Word; but sadly, people don’t always accept it. It is a painful process to face our faults and deal with them. Generally speaking, people justify misbehavior. They allow their past and how they were raised to negatively affect the rest of their lives. Our past may explain why we’re suffering, but we must not use it as an excuse to stay in bondage.”

“If what you want is the effect of painting, then paint, Aurora. If what you want is truth, learn to use your camera," he would say again and again” 

“Those who seek the truth run the risk of finding it.” 

“How many times have I told you not to believe everything you hear? Seek truth for yourself.” 

“you can tell the deepest truths with the lies of fiction” 

“Becau“Because it is so unbelievable, the truth often escapes being known.” 

“The life of a nation is secure only while the nation is honest, truthful, and virtuous.” 

If you seek Truth, you will not seek to gain a victory by every possible means; and when you have found Truth, you need not fear being defeated.

“Tell all the truth but tell it slant.”
