It is possible to be a master in false philosophy easier in fact than to be a master in the truth because a false philosophy can be made as simple and consistent as one pleases.

When we believe ourselves in possession of the only truth we are likely to be indifferent to common everyday truths.

There are new words now that excuse everybody. Give me the good old days of heroes and villains the people you can bravo or hiss. There was a truth to them that all the slick credulity of today cannot touch.

In fact men will fight for a superstition quite as quickly as for a living truth - often more so since a superstition is so intangible you cannot get at it to refute it but truth is a point of view and so is changeable.

An honest man speaks the truth though it may give offence a vain man in order that it may.

Don't let your special character and values the secret that you know and no one else does the truth - don't let that get swallowed up by the great chewing complacency.

I put forward formless and unresolved notions as do those who publish doubtful questions to debate in the schools not to establish the truth but to seek it.

It is one thing to show a man that he is in an error and another to put him in possession of the truth.

We are free to yield to truth.

The lowest form of popular culture - lack of information misinformation disinformation and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people's lives - has overrun real journalism. Today ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage.
