Truth Quote by Tom Bissell — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“فثمة أعداؤنا؟ إنهم يصنعونا لنا اللون الذي يجب اعتماده، والوردة التي يجب أن نهديها ، والكتاب الذي يجب أن نقرأه”

“It is difficult to see ourselves as we are. Sometimes we are fortunate enough to have good friends, lovers or others who will do us the good service of telling us the truth about ourselves. When we don't, we can so easily delude ourselves, lose a sense of truth about ourselves, and our conscience loses power and purpose. Mostly, we tell ourselves what we would like to hear. We lose our way.”

“Love and well wishes,” he tells me. “Stars and sunrise. Hopes and health. May truth walk with you.”

“Falsehood flies, and truth comes limping after it, so that when men come to be undeceived, it is too late; the jest is over, and the tale hath had its effect: like a man, who hath thought of a good repartee when the discourse is changed, or the company parted; or like a physician, who hath found out an infallible medicine, after the patient is dead.”

“The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.”
