Just a few ideas.
Do you know any sayings or metaphors for wanting to bring out the truth? or inform others of the truth?
the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth
he continued utterance of a lie does not make it true, but it does convince many that it is, particularly if you can squelch most efforts to expose the lie Shapley R. Hunter
There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics. Mark Twain
The best ammunition against lies is the truth, there is no ammunition against gossip. It is like a fog and the clear wind blows it away and the sun burns it off.
Ernest Hemingway (1898 - 1961)
Some lies are so well disguised to resemble truth, that we should be poor judges of the truth not to believe them.
All political parties die at last of swallowing their own lies.
Dr. John Arbuthnot (1667 - 1735)
It is not a lie, it's a terminological inexactitude.
Alexander Haig
The great masses of the people . . . will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one.
Adolf Hitler (1889 - 1945)
By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.
Adolf Hitler (1889 - 1945)
We know the truth, not only by the reason, but by the heart.
Blaise Pascal
A truth's initial commotion is directly proportional to how deeply the lie was believed.
When a well packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations,
truth will seem utterly preposterous and it's speaker a raving lunatic. Dresden James
The great lawyer who employs his talent and his learning in the highly emunerative task of enabling a very wealthy client to override or circumvent the law is doing all that in him lies to encourage the growth in the country of a spirit of dumb anger against all laws and of disbelief in their efficacy.
Theodore Roosevelt (1858 - 1919)
Laws just or unjust may govern men's actions. Tyrannies may restrain or regulate their words. The machinery of propaganda may pack their minds with falsehood and deny them truth for many generations of time. But the soul of man thus held in trance or frozen in a long night can be awakened by a spark coming from God knows where and in a moment the whole structure of lies and oppression is on trial for its life
Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)
No mask like open truth to cover lies, As to go naked is the best disguise.
William Congreve (1670 - 1729)
Though leaves are many, the root is one; Through all the lying days of my youth I swayed my leaves and flowers in the sun Now I may wither into the truth.
William Butler Yeats (1865 - 1939)
At the heart of the First Amendment lies the principle that each person should decide for him or herself the ideas and beliefs deserving of expression, consideration, and adherence. Our political system and cultural life rest upon this ideal. Government action that stifles speech on account of its message, or that requires the utterance of a particular message favored by the Government, contravenes this essential right. Laws of this sort pose the inherent risk that the Government seeks not to advance a legitimate regulatory goal, but to suppress unpopular ideas or information or manipulate the public debate through coercion rather than persuasion.
