Truth Quote by Albert Camus — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“A truth that no one knows is still the truth.”

“There is truth and knowledge beyond present understanding.”

“The truth is the kindest thing we can give folks in the end.”

“Understanding is a three edged sword: your side, their side, and the truth.”

“Lies 1: There is only the present and nothing to remember.”
