Truth is handsomer than the affectation of love. Your goodness must have some edge to it, else it is none.

Truth, and goodness, and beauty, are but different faces of the same All

The finest and noblest ground on which people can live is truth; the real with the real; a ground on which nothing is assumed.

God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose. Take which you please; you can never have both.

Truth is our element.

The life of truth is cold.
