Ghandi on truth.

"An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it. Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self sustained."
- Mahatma Ghandi, Young India 1924-1926 (1927), p. 1285

Churchill Quote

"Men stumble over the truth from time to time, but most pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing happened."

Sticky quote

I found this sticker on a light standard next to a bus stop. It is a quote on truth by the journalist H.L. Mencken, so I felt it appropriate to post it here. In case you can't read it clearly, it says:

"The truth, indeed, is something that mankind, for some mysterious reason, instinctively dislikes. Every man who tries to tell it is unpopular, and even when, by the sheer strength of his case, he prevails, he is put down as a scoundrel."

Further research on his writing located this other quote on truth:

"Truth would quickly cease to be stranger than fiction, once we got as used to it."

This scoundrel said some interesting stuff.

Truth

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
