True

Famous quotes containing the word true:

    I perceived that to express those impressions, to write that essential book, which is the only true one, a great writer does not, in the current meaning of the word, invent it, but, since it exists already in each one of us, interprets it. The duty and the task of a writer are those of an interpreter.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    The true danger is when liberty is nibbled away, for expedience, and by parts.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    The fifth day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    Five gold rings,
    —Unknown. The Twelve Days of Christmas (l. 19–21)
