“So you’re always honest,” I said.”Aren’t you?””No,” I told him. “I’m not.””Well, that’s good to know, I guess.””I’m not saying I’m a liar,” I told him. He raised his eyebrows. “That’s not how I meant it, anyways.””How’d you mean it, then?””I just…I don’t always say what I feel.””Why not?””Because the truth sometimes hurts,” I said.”Yeah,” he said. “So do lies, though.”

“If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything.”

“To seek truth requires one to ask the right questions. Those void of truth never ask about anything because their ego and arrogance prevent them from doing so. Therefore, they will always remain ignorant. Those on the right path to Truth are extremely heart-driven and childlike in their quest, always asking questions, always wanting to understand and know everything — and are not afraid to admit they don’t know something. However, every truth seeker does need to breakdown their ego first to see Truth. If the mind is in the way, the heart won’t see anything.”

“If the Creator stood before a million men with the light of a million lamps, only a few would truly see him because truth is already alive in their hearts. Truth can only be seen by those with truth in them. He who does not have Truth in his heart, will always be blind to it.”

“You can only blame fake news so many times before the truth starts to emerge from the newsprint.”

“You get what you reap when you plant the seeds of deceit.”

“My legend is written in stone, but my deeds are written in ink.”

“Truth will always be fabricated so that the lies can be hidden within.”

“Sometimes what I wouldn’t give to have us sitting in a bar again at 9:00 a.m. telling lies to one another, far from God.”

“Taste without truth is tasteless.”

“Religion is like a blind man looking in a black room for a black cat that isn’t there, and finding it.”

“We awaken by asking the right questions. We awaken when we see knowledge being spread that goes against our own personal experiences. We awaken when we see popular opinion being wrong but accepted as being right, and what is right being pushed as being wrong. We awaken by seeking answers in corners that are not popular. And we awaken by turning on the light inside when everything outside feels dark.”

“A smiling lie is a whirlwind, easy to enter, but hard to escape.”

“A philosopher is a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat that isn’t there. A theologian is the man who finds it.”

“I cannot encourage any fabrication even for the sake of making people feel good. If I were to fabricate consciously and knowingly, I would not only be ordaining myself their enemy, but also ordaining myself God’s enemy.”
