“Both truth and falsity rule the world. Falsity by virtue of numbers and truth by virtue of control.”

“Contradiction is not a sign of falsity, nor the lack of contradiction a sign of truth.”

“Truth and falsity, indeed understanding, is not necessarily something purely intellectual, remote from feelings and attitudes.”

“Don't be a slave of falsity which isn't helping you while truth which can help you is ready to be your servant.”

“To love truth for truth's sake is the principal part of human perfection in this world, and the seed-plot of all other virtues.”

“In society's eyes the virtue of saying the right thing at the right time is more important that the virtue of telling the whole truth, or even of telling the truth at all.”

“You should always tell the truth, she thought, not because one lie leads to another, but rather because one lie could so easily lead you to that terrifying position from which, with just the help of a random dream, you can see, both back and ahead, the morass where truth and falsity are simply, for you, indistinguishable.”

“[Atheism] believes that truth for truth's sake is the highest ideal and that virtue is its own reward.”

“To sum up all these steps, each of which is very lengthy and complex, we will have put the game of truth back in the network of constraints and dominations. Truth, I should say rather, the system of truth and falsity, will have revealed the face it turned away from us for so long and which is that of its violence.”

“So every virtue, so our grasp of truth”
