“Just because other people think something, that doesn't make it true.Maybe there's some truth in that, but it's unsatisfying, bitter-tasting truth.”

“Sometimes people simply believe the things because it's easier that way. But it doesn't make it the truth.”

“Truth doesn't have a color. And it doesn't have a smell. It doesn't quiver or make noise. It doesn't shimmer. Yet it does - it does all these things, depending. Because truth is capricious. It may be hovering there all the while, but one moment you think you see it - it seems so clear, so well defined, as if you could catch it and hold it steady in your hand. But the next moment it's gone, or at least so fast moving it's a blur, at best. That's the thing Africa taught me about truth. You know it's truth because it's busy. Any seeming truth that's idle? Well, that's just not truth.”

“Sugar candy tasted better than bitter truth.”

“There is something inside me, some selfish beast of a subtle thing that doesn't like truth at all because it carries responsibility.”

“There's power in the truth, just like there's power in making the right choice”
