Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.
- quote by Marcus Aurelius

- quote by Alexander Pope
Fire destroys all sophistry, that is deceit; and maintains truth alone, that is gold.
- quote by Leonardo da Vinci
Fire destroys falsehood, that is sophistry, and restores truth, driving out darkness.
- quote by Leonardo da Vinci
Fire is to represent truth because it destroys all sophistry and lies; and the mask is for lying and falsehood which conceal truth.
- quote by Leonardo da Vinci
Fire may be represented as the destroyer of all sophistry, and as the image and demonstration of truth; because it is lightand drives out darkness which conceals all essences [or subtle things].
- quote by Leonardo da Vinci
First, what does truth require? It requires us to face the facts as they are, not to involve ourselves in self-deception; to refuse to think merely in slogans. If we are to work for the future of the city, let us deal with the realities as they actually are, not as they might have been, and not as we wish they were. [...] The truth doesn't die.
- quote by John F. Kennedy
For oh, 'twas nuts to the Father of Lies, (As this wily fiend is named in the Bible) To find it settled by Laws so wise That the greater the truth, the worse the libel.
- quote by Thomas Moore
