"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring two-pence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it." -C. S. LewisI think this is so right on - there is a uniqueness and elegance to truth that shouldn't surprise us, but it does.
A life lived in truth is at peace. Even Mark Twain recognized this when he said,
"Always tell the truth, then you won't have to remember anything."
