A truth is to be known always, to be uttered sometimes.
Khalil Gibran
» Khalil Gibran - all quotes »
You wished to be only a spectator, the gentleman in the balcony who wipes the glasses of his lorgnette in order to lose none of the comedy. Well, you could not do so. That role is not permitted a man. He must act, and he acts always, even when he thinks he is looking on, even when he washes his hands as Pontius Pilate, that dilettante, too, who uttered the words of your masters and of yourself. What is truth? Truth is that there is always and everywhere a duty to fulfil.
Paul Bourget
Carlyle uttered a pregnant truth when he said that the history of any country is in the biographies of the men who made it.
Andrew Dickson White
The most important truth which has ever been uttered, and the greatest discovery ever made in the moral world.
A. E. Housman
..Kandinsky in Munich uttered the well known words: 'Everything is permitted!' In 1961; we still live by this heritage, which in truth is inexhaustible.
Michel Seuphor
Women's degradation is in man's idea of his sexual rights. Our religion, laws, customs, are all founded on the belief that woman was made for man. Come what will, my whole soul rejoices in the truth that I have uttered.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton
