Famous quotes containing the words true and/or colors:

    “It is good to be tired and wearied by the futile search after the true good, that we may stretch out our arms to the Redeemer.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “Painting myself for others, I have painted my inward self with colors clearer than my original ones. I have no more made my book than my book has made me—a book consubstantial with its author, concerned with my own self, an integral part of my life; not concerned with some third-hand, extraneous purpose, like all other books.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
