A deception that elevates us is dearer than a host of low truths.
Marina Tsvetaeva
A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great value.
Isaac Asimov
Advertisements contain the only truths to be relied on in a newspaper.
Thomas Jefferson
All great truths begin as blasphemies.
George Bernard Shaw
All human discoveries seem to be made only for the purpose of confirming more strongly the truths come from on high, and contained in the sacred writings.
William Herschel
All significant truths are private truths. As they become public they cease to become truths; they become facts, or at best, part of the public character; or at worst, catchwords.
T. S. Eliot
All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.
Galileo Galilei
All truths begin as hearsay, as far as I'm concerned.
Matt Drudge
An exact poetic duplication of a man is for the poet a negation of the earth, an impossibility of being, even though his greatest desire is to speak to many men, to unite with them by means of harmonious verses about the truths of the mind or of things.
Salvatore Quasimodo
Any education that matters is liberal. All the saving truths, all the healing graces that distinguish a good education from a bad one or a full education from a half empty one are contained in that word.
Alan K. Simpson
As our bodies live upon the earth and find sustenance in the fruits which it produces, so our minds feed on the same truths as the intelligible and immutable substance of the divine Word contains.
Nicolas Malebranche
Better to illuminate than merely to shine, to deliver to others contemplated truths than merely to contemplate.
Thomas Aquinas

But he is unworthy the name of a minister of the gospel of peace, who is unwilling, not only to have his name cast out as evil, but also to die for the truths of the Lord Jesus.
George Whitefield
But it is strange how many rational beings believe the ultimate truths of the universe to be reducible to patterns on a blackboard.
Frederick Pollock
But romantic vision can also lead one away from certain very hard, ugly truths about life that are important to know.
Donna Tartt
But the more we search the Scriptures, the more we perceive, in this doctrine, the fundamental truth of the gospel - that truth which gives to redemption its character, and to all other truths their real power.
John Nelson Darby
Ceremony leads her bigots forth, prepared to fight for shadows of no worth. While truths, on which eternal things depend, can hardly find a single friend.
William Cowper
Euphemisms are unpleasant truths wearing diplomatic cologne.
