When a great truth once gets abroad in the world, no power on earth can imprison it, or prescribe its limits, or suppress it. It is bound to go on till it becomes the thought of the world.
- quote by Frederick Douglass

- quote by Frederick Douglass
When by night the frogs are croaking, kindle but a torch's fire; Ha! how soon they all are silent! Thus Truth silences the liar.
- quote by Friedrich von Logau
When fiction rises pleasing to the eye, Men will believe, because they love the lie; But truth herself, if clouded with a frown, have some solemn proof to pass her down.
- quote by Charles Churchill
When life is true to the poles of nature, the streams of truth will roll through us in song.
- quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

- quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson
When my love swears that she is made of truth, I do believe her, though I know she lies.
- quote by William Shakespeare
When truth cannot make itself known in words, it will make itself known in deeds.
- quote by Roger Scruton
When truth or virtue an affront endures, Th' affront is mine, my friend, and should be yours.
- quote by Alexander Pope
Where this will end? In the Abyss, one may prophecy; whither all Delusions are, at all moments, travelling; where this Delusion has now arrived. For if there be a Faith, from of old, it is this, as we often repeat, that no Lie can live for ever. The very Truth has to change its vesture, from time to time; and be born again. But all Lies have sentence of death written down against them, and Heaven's Chancery itself; and, slowly or fast, advance incessantly towards their hour.
- quote by Thomas Carlyle
