False Quotes

Quotations
Quote of the Day

False facts are highly injurious to the progress of science, for they often endure long; but false views, if supported by some evidence, do little harm, for every one takes a salutary pleasure in proving their falseness.
View quotes by Charles Darwin

The difference between false memories and true ones is same as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look the most real, the most brilliant.
View quotes by Salvador Dali

Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true.
View quotes by Martin Luther King Jr

I don't know. People always think that there has got to be a dark side to everyone, a closet with skeletons, demons under the bed. People think all kinds of things about one another. They feel compelled to make up fears and false assumptions about their closest friends. Truth is, I'll never know all there is to know about you just as you will never know all there is to know about me. Humans are by nature too complicated to be understood fully. So, we can choose either to approach our fellow human beings with suspicion or to approach them with an open mind, a dash of optimism and a great deal of candour.
View quotes by Tom Hanks

"I could get into bed with James Bond, then take my false leg off and it would really be a gun."
View quotes by Heather Mills

And this above all unto thine own self be true and it shall follow as the day the night - thou can'st not then be false to any man.
View quotes by William Shakespeare

I pray you, do not fall in love with me, For I am false than vows made in wine (As You Like It, Act 3 Scene 5)
View quotes by William Shakespeare

We must come to the point where we realize the concept of race is a false one. There is only one race, the human race.
View quotes by Dan Aykroyd

Ambition drove many men to become false; to have one thought locked in the breast, another ready on the tongue.
View quotes by Sallust

That which has always been accepted by everyone, everywhere, is almost certain to be false.
View quotes by Paul Valery

Nothing in the world, no object or event, would be true or false if there were not thinking creatures.
View quotes by Donald Davidson

False friends are like our shadow, keeping close to us while we walk in the sunshine, but leaving us the instant we cross into the shade.
View quotes by Christian Nestell Bovee

Materialism coarsens and petrifies everything, making everything vulgar, and every truth false.
View quotes by Henri-Frederic Amiel

A thing is not necessarily true because badly uttered, nor false because spoken magnificently.
View quotes by Saint Augustine

History is an account, mostly false, of events, mostly unimportant, which are brought about by rulers, mostly knaves, and soldiers, mostly fools.
View quotes by Ambrose Bierce

Technology has advanced more in the last thirty years than in the previous two thousand. The exponential increase in advancement will only continue. Anthropological Commentary: The opposite of a trivial truth is false; the opposite of a great truth is also true.
View quotes by Niels Bohr

The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.
View quotes by Niels Bohr

Crude classifications and false generalisations are the curse of organised life.
View quotes by George Bernard Shaw

Science can purify religion from error and superstition. Religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.

View quotes by Pope John Paul II

The great renewal of the world will perhaps consist in this, that man and maid, freed of all false feelings and reluctances, will seek each other not as opposites, but as brother and sister, as neighbors, and will come together as human beings.
View quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
