Lies Quotes

Quotations
Quote of the Day

What does the truth matter? Haven't we mothers all given our sons a taste for lies, lies which from the cradle upwards lull them, reassure them, send them to sleep: lies as soft and warm as a breast!
View quotes by Georges Bernanos

There are lies damn lies and statistics.
View quotes by Benjamin Disraeli

It is easier to perceive error than to find truth, for the former lies on the surface and is easily seen, while the latter lies in the depth, where few are willing to search for it.
View quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

A man who tells lies, like me, merely hides the truth. But a man who tells half-lies has forgotten where he put it.
View quotes by Claude Rains

Sex is full of lies. The body tries to tell the truth. But, it's usually too battered with rules to be heard, and bound with pretenses so it can hardly move. We cripple ourselves with lies.
View quotes by Jim Morrison

Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand
View quotes by Thomas Carlyle

Our grandly business undoubtedly is, not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand
View quotes by Thomas Carlyle

For us to maintain our way of living, we must tell lies to each other and especially to ourselves. The lies are necessary because, without them, many deplorable acts would become impossibilities.
View quotes by Derrick Jensen

'You can't trust politicians. It doesn't matter who makes a political speech. It's all lies... and it applies to any rock star who wants to make a political speech as well.'
View quotes by Bob Geldof

When my love swears that she is made of truth, I do believe her though I know she lies (Sonnet 138)
View quotes by William Shakespeare

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
View quotes by Albert Camus

Strength lies not in defence but in attack
View quotes by Adolf Hitler

To follow without halt, one aim; there is the secret of success. And success? What is it? I do not find it in the applause of the theatre. It lies rather in the satisfaction of accomplishment.
View quotes by Anna Pavlova

'I'd hate to deprive you of this. Remember salvation lies within...'
Warden Norton During the Cell inspection
View quotes by Shawshank Redemption

'Is it easy to love God?' asks an old author. 'It is easy,' he replies, 'to those who do it.' I have included two Graces under the word Charity. But God can give a third. He can awake in man, towards Himself, a supernatural Appreciative love. This is of all gifts the most to be desired. Here, not in our natural loves, nor even in ethics, lies the true centre of all human and angelic life. With this all things are possible.
View quotes by C S Lewis

Here lies a most beautiful lady,
Light of step and heart was she;
I think she was the most beautiful lady
That ever was in the West Country.
But beauty vanishes; beauty passes;
However rare - rare it be;
And when I crumble, who will remember
This lady of the West Country?
('Epitaph', 1912)
View quotes by Walter De La Mare

Marriage hath in it less of beauty but more of safety, than the single life; it hath more care, but less danger, it is more merry, and more sad; it is fuller of sorrows, and fuller of joys; it lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love and charity, and those burdens are delightful.
View quotes by Bishop Jeremy Taylor

Language has not the power to speak what love indites: The soul lies buried in the ink that writes
View quotes by John Clare

Truth exists; only lies are invented
View quotes by Georges Braque

He (the writer) warns the heads of parties against believing their own lies (The Art of Political Lying)
View quotes by John Arbuthnot
