Noble Truth

Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or truth:

“He stood, a soldier, to the last right end,
A perfect patriot and a noble friend,
But most a virtuous son.
All offices were done
By him, so ample, full, and round
In weight in measure, number, sound,
As, though his age imperfect might appear,
His life was of humanity the sphere.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

“I believe that truth has only one face: that of a violent contradiction.”
—Georges Bataille (1897–1962)
