Meditation is that exercise of the mind by which it recalls a known truth,--as some kinds of creatures do their food; to be ruminated upon.
Thomas Hartwell Horne
I always divide people into two groups. Those who live by what they know to be a lie, and those who live by what they believe, falsely, to be the truth.
Christopher Hampton
Seek truth in meditation, not in moldy books. Look in the sky to find the moon, not in the pond
Persian proverb
In a time of universal deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act
George Orwell
If one is determined to die for the truth, even a common man can create history.
Vellupillai Pirapakaran
Only one who liberates himself from his psychological desires and fears indeed in truth qualify as liberation hero.

Elbert Hubbard
Thus meditating you will no longer strive to build yourself up in your prejudices, but, forgetting self, you will remember only that you are seeking the Truth
James Allen
Briefly, you can only find truth with logic if you have already found truth without it.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
The aim of flattery is to soothe and encourage us by assuring us of the truth of an opinion we have already formed about ourselves.
Dame Edith Sitwell
Defending the truth is not something one does out of a sense of duty or to allay guilt complexes, but is a reward in itself.
Simone De Beauvoir
Scientific truth is too beautiful to be sacrificed for the sake of light entertainment or money. Astrology is an aesthetic affront. It cheapens astronomy, like using Beethoven for commercial jingles.
Richard Dawkins
The starry vault of heaven is in truth the open book of cosmic projection...
Carl Jung
The truth is that neither British nor American imperialism was or is idealistic. It has always been driven by economic or strategic interests.
