#======#
There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad. – George Orwell

The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who speak it. – George Orwell

If all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed — if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. – George Orwell

All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them. – Galileo Galilei

How can we find truth and keep the lies out of our lives?

Is there anyone we can trust to tell us the truth?

Is it worth searching for the truth?

How can we separate truth from lies?
