Truth Quote by Alison Bechdel — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I am not ultimately interested in writing fiction. I can't make things up. Or rather, I can only make things up about things that have already happened.”

“We're a nation of giant toddlers, dragging our blankets and bottles everwhere we go!”

“The truth has not so much set us free as it has ripped away a carefully constructed facade, leaving us naked to begin again.”

“Let us dedicate this new era to mothers around the world, and also to the mother of all mothers -- Mother Earth. It is up to us to keep building bridges to bring the world closer together, and not destroy them to divide us further apart. We can pave new roads towards peace simply by understanding other cultures. This can be achieved through traveling, learning other languages, and interacting with others from outside our borders. Only then will one truly discover how we are more alike than different. Never allow language or cultural traditions to come between brothers and sisters. The same way one brother may not like his sister's choice of fashion or hairstyle, he will never hate her for her personal style or music preference. If you judge a man, judge only his heart. And if you should do so, make sure you use the truth in your conscience when weighing one's character. Do not measure anybody strictly based on the bad you see in them and ignore all the good.”

“The perfect killer has no conscience.”

“Silence is the mother of truth.”

“Nichts Interessantes ist jemals richtig.”
