Vacuously True Statements

Famous quotes containing the words true and/or statements:

“My dream thou brok’st not, but continued’st it.
Thou art so true that thoughts of thee suffice
To make dreams truths and fables histories;
Enter these arms, for since thou thought’st it best
Not to dream all my dream, let’s act the rest.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
