Truth

There are two ways to be fooled: One is to believe what isn’t so; the other is to refuse to believe what is so. — Søren Kierkegaard

We do not err because truth is difficult to see. It is visible at a glance. We err because the lie is more comfortable. — Alexander Solzhenitsyn

The mind is below truth, not above it, and it is bound not to descant on it, but to venerate it. Truth and falsehood are set before us for the trial of our hearts. — Bl. John Henry Cardinal Newman
