Famous quotes containing the word truth:
“Every man supposes himself not to be fully understood; and if there is any truth in him, if he rests at last on the divine soul, I see not how it could be otherwise. The last chamber, the last closet, he must feel was never opened; there is always a residuum unknown, unanalyzable. That is, every man believes that he has greater possibility.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Why should you renounce your right to traverse the star-lit deserts of truth, of the premature comforts of an acre, house, and barn? Truth also has its roof, and bed, and board.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I reckon a body that ups and tells the truth when he is in a tight place, is taking considerable many resks; though I ain’t had no experience, and can’t say for certain.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
