Famous quotes containing the word truth:

    Of old the world on dreaming fed;
    Grey Truth is now her painted toy....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The truth must dazzle gradually
    Or every man be blind.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    Could truth perhaps be a woman who has reasons for not permitting her reasons to be seen? Could her name perhaps be—to speak Greek—Baubo?... Oh, those Greeks! They understood how to live: to do that it is necessary to stop bravely at the surface, the fold, the skin, to adore the appearance, to believe in forms, in tones, in words, in the whole Olympus of appearance! Those Greeks were superficial—out of profundity!
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
