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 BernanosThere are

lies and statistics.
View quotes by Benjamin DisraeliIt 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 GoetheA man who tells
lies, like me, merely hides the truth. But a man who tells half-
lies has forgotten where he put it.

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

View quotes by Shawshank Redemption'Is it easy to love God?' asks an old author. 'It is easy,' he rep
lies, '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,

View quotes by C S LewisHere
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)
