When truth has no burning, then it is philosophy, when it gets burning from the heart, it becomes poetry.

It is a great mystery that though the human heart longs for Truth, in which alone it finds liberation and delight, the first reaction of human beings to Truth is one of hostility and fear!

A new untruth is better than an old truth.

The truth is often a terrible weapon of aggression. It is possible to lie, and even to murder, with the truth.

The sea - this truth must be confessed - has no generosity. No display of manly qualities - courage, hardihood, endurance, faithfulness - has ever been known to touch its irresponsible consciousness of power.
