Truth Quotes

No matter who you are, engaging in the quest to discover where and how things began tends to induce emotional fervor—as if knowing the beginning bestows upon you some form of fellowship with, or perhaps governance over, all that comes later. So what is true for life itself is no less true for the universe: knowing where you came from is no less important than knowing where you are going.

Sofia Sartor:
You mentioned a creed before. What is it?

Ezio Auditore Da Firenze:
Nothing is true, everything is permitted.

Sofia Sartor:
That is rather cynical.

Ezio Auditore Da Firenze:
It would be if it were doctrine. But it is merely an observation on the nature of reality. To say that nothing is true is to realise that the foundations of society are fragile and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say that everything is permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions and that we must live with our consequences, whether glorious or tragic.

Assassin's Creed Revelations

Ezio Auditore de Firenze

J'ai perdu ma force et ma vie,
Et mes amis et ma gaieté;
J'ai perdu jusqu'à la fierté
Qui faisait croire à mon génie.

Quand j'ai connu la Vérité,
J'ai cru que c'était une amie;
Quand je l'ai comprise et sentie,
J'en étais déjà dégoûté.

Alas, hope and reality are most often worlds apart.

Meaningful Quotes

It is impossible to lay the blame on certain external forces, for evil is inherent in man. Human nature is the source of strife, and strife is the source of destruction. That is the absolute truth.

Instructed that true knowledge leads to love,
True dignity abides with him alone
Who, in the silent hour of inward thought,
Can still suspect, and still revere himself,
In lowliness of heart.
