Happy is he whom truth teaches by itself, not by figures and words that pass, but as it is in itself. Our opinion and our sense often deceive us, and discover but little.
-Bk. I, ch. iii.
______________
I have never acted like Pilate, who refused to hear the truth. I have always said to my Heavenly Father: I would willingly hear Thee, and so I beseech of Thee to answer me when I humbly ask: what is truth? Grant that I may see things as they truly are, and never be dazzled by them.
-Novissima Verba
