“Listening to people espouse beliefs different from mine is informative, not threatening, because the only thing that can alter my worldview is a new and undeniable truth, and contrary to what Jack Nicholson says in 'A Few Good Men', "I CAN handle the truth.”

“You can't handle the truth!" - Colonel Jessup in A Few Good Men.”

“My mother told me that truth is like my skin, a beautiful, protective covering, and the things that people say or do can be easily changed or discarded. She told me truth comes from the heart.”

“Why do human beings have the peculiar impression that belief is the same as truth?""Because sometimes the truth hurts. Sometimes we need to believe in a better truth.""What better truth can there be than truth?”

“And for all I can tell, the only difference is that what many see we call a real thing, and what only one sees we call a dream. But things that many see may have no taste or moment in them at all, and things that are shown only to one may be spears and water-spouts of truth from the very depth of truth.”

“It is not the truth that people cannot handle. It is the consequences that stem from that truth.”
