To attempt seeing Truth without knowing Falsehood. It is the attempt to see the Light without knowing the Darkness. It cannot be.

A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.

I remember how being young and black and gay and lonely felt. A lot of it was fine feeling I had the truth and the light and the key but a lot of it was purely hell.

The universal medicine for the Soul is the Supreme Reason and Absolute Justice for the mind mathematical and practical Truth for the body the Quintessence a combination of light and gold.

Scientific truth is marvelous but moral truth is divine and whoever breathes its air and walks by its light has found the lost paradise.

Truth when not sought after rarely comes to light.

The truth is the Super Bowl long ago became more than just a football game. It's part of our culture like turkey at Thanksgiving and lights at Christmas and like those holidays beyond their meaning a factor in our economy.

Beyond a doubt truth bears the same relation to falsehood as light to darkness.

Truth like light blinds. Falsehood on the contrary is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object.

Not when truth is dirty but when it is shallow does the enlightened man dislike to wade into its waters.
