Establishing an equilibrium between the Islam of truth and Islam as an identity is one of the most difficult tasks of religious intellectuals.

Truth of a modest sort I can promise you and also sincerity. That complete praiseworthy sincerity which while it delivers one into the hands of one's enemies is as likely as not to embroil one with one's friends.

To be afraid is to behave as if the truth were not true.

My longing for truth was a single prayer.

Everything will line up perfectly when knowing and living the truth becomes more important than looking good.

I am not politically correct. I am all about the facts I am all about the truth and I am all about Godly pursuits and what this country was built on and I am not apologetic about it.

The truth is I don't have any problem with journalists - I count some of them as friends - also some of my heroes are journalists I'm a big fan of Robert Fisk - great people or crazy people who are prepared to stand up for what's right.

A lot of journalism wants to have what they call objectivity without them having a commitment to pursuing the truth but that doesn't work. Objectivity requires belief in and a commitment toward pursuing the truth - having an object outside of our personal point of view.

There is nothing so powerful as truth and often nothing so strange.

I am in the present. I cannot know what tomorrow will bring forth. I can know only what the truth is for me today. That is what I am called upon to serve and I serve it in all lucidity.

People often ask why aren't you reading about what it is you're working on right now? And the truth is you only get three pages a night before your eyelids close.

I perceived how that it was impossible to establish the lay people in any truth except the Scripture were plainly laid before their eyes in their mother tongue.

The three-year-old who lies about taking a cookie isn't really a liar after all. He simply can't control his impulses. He then convinces himself of a new truth and eager for your approval reports the version that he knows will make you happy.

I know what I like in other actors: truth. That's the best. It makes you say 'OK I'll go with you on this.'

Some minds remain open long enough for the truth not only to enter but to pass on through by way of a ready exit without pausing anywhere along the route.

The genuine truth and I do think about this a lot is that I'm one of the least competitive people you'll ever meet. Except with myself.

All stories should have some honesty and truth in them otherwise you're just playing about.
