It takes strength and courage to admit the truth.

About This Quote

It takes strength and courage to admit the truth. When you don’t feel confident enough with yourself to admit your mistakes or shortcomings, it can be easy to ignore them or pretend they don’t exist. But the truth is that all of us are capable of making mistakes. If you don’t believe it yourself, you can ask the people around you.

They will be able to point out their own flaws just as you can point out theirs. It’s better to admit the truth than deny the facts.
