There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

The greatest truths are the simplest things in the world, simple as your own existence.

When in doubt tell the truth. It will confound your enemies and astound your friends.

The truth is found when men are free to pursue it.

This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly.

Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth.
