One
universe made up all that is; and one God in it all,
and one principle of being, and one law, the reason
shared by all thinking creatures, and one truth.
-- Marcus Aurelius
121-80 AD, Roman
Emperor, Philosopher
We
catch on to the truth and technique of expectation
in those rare moments when we are stirred by an
awareness of a guidance seemingly higher and greater
than our own, when for a little while we are taken
over by a force and an intelligence above and beyond
those commonly felt. Confident and free, filled with
wonder and ready acceptance, we permit ourselves to
be taken over by our unquestioning self.
-- Dr. Marcus Bach
American Authority on
the World's Religions and Inter-cultural Relations
Not
being known doesn't stop the truth from being true.

Your
only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to
yourself. Being true to anyone else or anything else
is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake
messiah. [The Savior's Manual]

Error always
addresses the passions and prejudices; truth scorns such
mean intrigue, and only addresses the understanding and the
conscience.
-- Azel Backus
American College President
What is truth?
said jesting Pilate; and would not stay for an answer.
-- Francis Bacon
1561-1626, British
Philosopher, Essayist, Statesman
It is a
pleasure to stand upon the shore, and to see ships tost upon
the sea: a pleasure to stand in the window of a castle, and
to see a battle and the adventures thereof below: but no
pleasure is comparable to standing upon the vantage ground
of truth... and to see the errors, and wanderings, and
mists, and tempests, in the vale below.
-- Francis Bacon
1561-1626, British
Philosopher, Essayist, Statesman
Truth arises
more readily from error than from confusion.
