Truth quotes generally relate to how difficult it can be to tell the truth - at least on a regular basis. One of America's greatest treasures, cowboy, humorist and social commentator Will Rogers, summarized this conundrum in his typical straightforward delivery with the classic epigram, '"A remark generally hurts in proportion to its truth." This Cherokee-born Oklahoman traveled the world three times, providing him the unique opportunity to observe society's struggle and success with truth on a global level. Truth quotes remind us that being honest is often at the sacrifice of one's relationships and reputation, and yet, gives us hope of becoming a better person.

The original French reads, "Croyez ceux qui cherchent la vérité, doutez de ceux qui la trouvent; doutez de tout, mais ne doutez pas de vous-même."

Because when I'm really following my truth, I will be at peace with the consequences whatever they are. I can accept somebody else's truth, but I must live my own truth. And sometimes that means walking away from a relationship."
