Famous quotes containing the word truth:

    And the truth is cold, as a giant’s knee
    Will seem cold.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    When you realize how hard it is to know the truth about yourself, you understand that even the most exhaustive and well-meaning autobiography, determined to tell the truth, represents, at best, a guess. There have been times in my life when I felt incredibly happy. Life was full. I seemed productive. Then I thought,”Am I really happy or am I merely masking a deep depression with frantic activity?” If I don’t know such basic things about myself, who does?
    Phyllis Rose (b. 1942)

    In the courts women have no rights, no voice; nobody speaks for them. I wish woman to have her voice there among the pettifoggers. If it is not a fit place for women, it is unfit for men to be there.
    —Sojourner Truth (1797–1883)
