"Dreams do come true, if we only wish hard enough, You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it."	Sir James Matthew Barrie
"What plays the mischief with the truth is that men will insist upon the universal application of a temporary feeling or opinion."	Daisy Bates
"The truth that survives is simply the lie that is pleasantest to believe."	Mary Catherine Bateson
"I speak truth, not so much as I would, but as much as I dare; and I dare a little the more, as I grow older."	D. A. Battista
"I tore myself away from the safe comfort of certainties through my love for truth - and truth rewarded me."	Simone de Beauvoir
"When we abolish the slavery of half of humanity, together with the whole system of hypocrisy it implies, then the 'division' of humanity will reveal its genuine significance and the human couple will find its true form."	Simone de Beauvoir
"No human being is constituted to know the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth; and even the best of men must be content with fragment, with partial glimpses, never the full fruition."	Alan Marshall Beck
"Boys are found everywhere-on top of, underneath, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around or jumping to. Mothers love them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers tolerate them, adults ignore them and Heaven protects them. A boy is Truth with dirt on its face, Beauty with a cut on its finger, Wisdom with bubble gum in its hair and the Hope of the future with a frog in its pocket."	Alan Marshall Beck
"As we face a new era of world history, there is an urgent need for the true Church of Jesus Christ, the Body of Christ, to be about the business God has called us to, the work of ministry. And this is a work that every believer is called to be actively involved in."	Edward Bedore
"A reputation for good judgment, for fair dealing, for truth, and for rectitude, is itself a fortune."	Henry Ward Beecher
"It is one of the severest tests of friendship to tell your friend his faults. So to love a man that you cannot bear to see a stain upon him, and to speak painful truth through loving words, that is friendship."	Henry Ward Beecher
"Doctrine is nothing but the skin of truth set up and stuffed."	Henry Ward Beecher
"Only reason can convince us of those three fundamental truths without a recognition of which there can be no effective liberty: that what we believe is not necessarily true; that what we like is not necessarily good; and that all questions are open."	(Arthur) Clive
"True love is not rare at the age of a teen, but recognizing it as true love is."	Brad Bell
"Honesty rare as a man without self-pity, kinders as large and plain as a prairie wind."	Stephen Vincent Benét
"Happiness includes chiefly the idea of satisfaction after full honest effort. No one can possibly be satisfied and no one can be happy who feels that in some paramount affairs he failed to take up the challenge of life."	(Enoch) Arnold Bennett
"What makes a good follower? The single most important characteristic may well be a willingness to tell the truth. In a world of growing complexity leaders are increasingly dependent on their subordinates for good information, whether the leaders want to hear it or not. Followers who tell the truth and leaders who listen to it are an unbeatable combination."	Warren G. Bennis
"The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born-that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That's nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born. Failing organizations are usually over-managed and under-led."	Warren G. Bennis
"My way of joking is to tell the truth. It's the funniest joke in the world."	Sir Walter Besant
"I am afraid we must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy."	Sir Walter Besant
