Noble Truth

Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or truth:

“...A shadow now occasionally crossed my simple, sanguine, and life enjoying mind, a notion that I was never really going to accomplish those powerful literary works which would blow a noble trumpet to social generosity and noblesse oblige before the world. What? should I find myself always planning and never achieving ... a richly complicated and yet firmly unified novel?”
—Sarah N. Cleghorn (1876–1959)

“... what a weak barrier is truth when it stands in the way of an hypothesis!”
—Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
