"The best possession of the man of clay is health; the highest virtue of the man of spirit is truthfulness ... Daily practical wisdom consists of four things: To know the root of Truth, the branches of Truth, the limit of Truth, and the opposite of Truth. (February) ... Let a man overcome anger by love, evil by good, greediness by liberality, lie by truth. ...Truth is brighter than the sun; truth is the sunny day of Reason, and falsehood the mind’s dark night ... All has an end, and will away. Truth alone is immortal, and lives for ever. ... The light of all flesh is the sun; the light of the soul — truth everlasting. (March) ... There is more courage in facing the world with undisguised truth, than in descending into a wild beast’s den. (May) ... Many a man will follow a misleader. Few will recognize truth at a glance. (July) ... He who has been once deceived, dreads evil, and suspects it even in truth. (August) ...By truth alone is man’s mind purified, and by right discipline it doth become inspired. (November)"
