The search for "the elusive truth" in our lives, has many differant faces.

Speak the truth, but leave immediately after.
Slovenian Proverb

Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those who find it.
Andre Gide (1869 - 1951)

A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
Mark Twain (1835 - 1910),

When a thing is funny, search it carefully for a hidden truth.
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)

The truth that makes men free is for the most part the truth which men prefer not to hear.
Herbert Agar

The love of truth lies at the root of much humor.
Robertson Davies

If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.
Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)

One must know oneself, if this does not serve to discover truth, it at least serves as a rule of life and there is nothing better.
Blaise Pascal (1623 - 1662)

There are few nudities so objectionable as the naked truth.
Agnes Repplier (1855 - 1950)

If the truth doesn't save us, what does that say about us?
Lois McMaster Bujold,

The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815 - 1902)

Love truth, and pardon error.
Voltaire (1694 - 1778)

The truth that many people never understand, until it is too late, is that the more you try to avoid suffering the more you suffer because smaller and more insignificant things begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt.
Thomas Merton (1915 - 1968)

Chase after truth like hell and you'll free yourself, even though you never touch its coat-tails.
Clarence Darrow (1857 - 1938)

  AND THAT'S THE TRUTH......Huh?Huh??.......Huh?Huh??.......Huh?Huh??.......Huh?Huh??.......Huh?Huh??

  Buy Jane's new book!

   Actually, Truth is not elusive--it is always right in our face, but we obstinately want to continue in our unhappy illusions.

    Light, Life, Love, Liberty--these are our real qualities.

    Buy Jane's new book!

The endless, agonizing recycling of what might have been, soon followed by a litany of rationalizations and self-deceptions as you struggle to reconcile the void between the person you want to be and the person you fear you are.
