The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance-it is the illusion of knowledge.

The power of truth

The more completely you live in truth, the more fully you will connect to and realize your best possibilities. Truth will show you who you are, and enable you to go where you most sincerely wish to go.

Truth is not always the easiest or most convenient choice, and it can often be painful. Yet in the long run, truth never fails to be the best course.

When you seek to avoid the truth, you’ll put a great amount of effort into a pursuit that will take you backwards. Instead, work your way willingly toward truth at every opportunity, and you’ll always be making real progress.

Those who fight against the truth are fighting a losing battle. Use every opportunity, in every moment, to put yourself on the side of truth.

Deception costs much and gains nothing of any value. Truth sets you free to achieve, to learn, to experience, express and fulfill the best that is within you.

Be true to yourself, to others, to the world around you and to all of life. Truth will always keep you looking and moving forward.
