Friedrich Nietzsche
-
We have art in order not to die of the truth.
-
One may sometimes tell a lie, but the grimace that accompanies it tells the truth.
-
Art is not merely an imitation of the reality of nature, but in truth a metaphysical supplement to the reality of nature, placed alongside thereof for its conquest.
-
Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.
-
All truth is simple... is that not doubly a lie?
