Charles Kingsley Quotes

Truth Alone Triumphs

Truth is the highest virtue, but higher still is truthful living.

Integrity can be neither lost nor concealed nor faked nor quenched nor artificially come by nor outlived, nor, I believe, in the long run, denied.

What can be found equal to modesty, uncorrupt faith, the sister of justice, and undisguised truth?

But thou, my son, study to make prevail One colour in thy life, the hue of truth.

I'm nothing if not honest.

Why lie? I'm not going to be a hypocrite and say the opposite of what I think, like some others do.

I don't want to lie. I dislike dishonesty. And I work in Hollywood, a town and a business that relies on a lot of falsehoods with people hiding behind different facades. I don't want to be a part of that.

We must Think what we Say, and Mean what we Profess.

I feel honesty always works.

I don't want to pretend to be a prophet or a saint. I'm very conscious of my limitations. I know my flaws. But I don't like lying.

My pet peeve and my goal in life is to somehow get an adjective for 'integrity' in the dictionary. 'Truthful' doesn't really cover it, or 'genuine.' It should be like 'integritus.'

Sincerity is the way to heaven.

I do not believe in hypocrisy.

Sincerity is not only effective and honourable, it is also much less difficult than is commonly supposed.

For truth has such a face and such a mien, as to be loved needs only to be seen.

Nothing more completely baffles one who is full of trick and duplicity, than straightforward and simple integrity in another.

There is in the end no remedy but truth. It is the one course that cannot be evil.

I'm always going for truth and honesty.

It doesn't matter what you're saying if you come from an honest place.

The elegance of honesty needs no adornment.

Honesty is as rare as a man without self-pity.

A man is original when he speaks the truth that has always been known to all good men.

No legacy is so rich as honesty.

If you seek truth you will not seek victory by dishonorable means, and if you find truth you will become invincible.
