Truth Quote by Bill Russell — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“But what do you say if you're asked a direct question and you can't tell the truth and you can't tell a lie?'”

“Someone with a fresh mind, one not conditioned by upbringing and environment, would doubtless look at science and the powerful reductionism that it inspires as overwhelmingly the better mode of understanding the world, and would doubtless scorn religion as sentimental wishful thinking. Would not that same uncluttered mind also see the attempts to reconcile science and religion by disparaging the reduction of the complex to the simple as attempts guided by muddle-headed sentiment and intellectually dishonest emotion?”

“Who can ever know what path to walk on when all of them are either crooked or broken? One just has to walk.”

“The ultimate pacifist with a gun! That’s my girl, always with surprises.”

“There were a hundred shades between a truth and lie, and she knew them all.”

“There are moments in your life, moments when chances have to be taken. It's scary because there is always the possibility of failure. I know that. I KNOW that. Because once upon a time, I took a chance on a man that I had failed before. I was SCARED. I was TERRIFIED. I thought I might lose everything. But I wasn't living, then. The life I had before wasn't LIVING. It was getting by. And I will never regret the chances I took. Because it brought me to them. To all of them. I made my choice. And you're making yours.”
