Milan KunderaWhat does it mean to live in truth? Putting it negatively is easy enough: it means not lying, not hiding, and not dissimulating.
About This Quote
To live in truth is to live in an honest way. When people live in truth, they are honest with themselves and others. People who live in truth don’t hide things, they don’t lie. And they don’t dissimulate; they don’t pretend to be someone else. They are true to themselves, their words and their actions.
