Truth Quote by Moderata Fonte — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“If therefore my work is negative, irreligious, atheistic, let it be remembered that atheism — at least in the sense of this work — is the secret of religion itself; that religion itself, not indeed on the surface, but fundamentally, not in intention or according to its own supposition, but in its heart, in its essence, believes in nothing else than the truth and divinity of human nature.”

“Truth is neither in the scripture nor in the words of prophets. It is in your heart, feel it, discover it and expand with it.”

“A thing may happen and be a total lie; another thing may not happen and be truer than the truth.”

“When truth is replaced by silence,the silence is a lie.”

“Talking to a therapist, I thought, was like taking your clothes off and then taking your skin off, and then having the other person say, "Would you mind opening up your rib cage so that we can start?”

“In religion, as in war and everything else, comfort is the one thing you cannot get by looking for it. If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end: if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth -- only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin with and, in the end, despair.”
