Reader comments about this quote:

Truth is a big part of our daily life and probably the most important, for without truth there is no trust, no honor and without trust and honor there is no passion, no love, and without passion and love we may as well pack our bags and switch off the light. -- RobertSRQ 1

Like any 'right' it needs to be exercised in order to have it. -- E Archer, NYC 1
That is why truth is so viciously attacked and or hidden by our media. Armed with the truth the public will not listen to those that would try to enslave them. -- warren, olathe 1
If people have a right to the truth they also have a duty to give it. -- Ken, Allyn, WA 1
Inalienable rights' harmonization with truth is an absolute that illuminates freedom. By example: a socialism's fiscal expression, such as Keynesian Economics, ALWAYS collapses into acute poverty, pain, life extermination and extreme caste oppression. Truth is one with and supports nature's fiscal laws which IS the foundation of abundant rights expressions, prosperity and freedom. -- Mike, Norwalk 1
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is connecting with what is true. -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown
