What is the truth and why is it important?

Here are some quotes from famous people on the subject:

 

Truth Hides - Asian Dub Foundation

Truth Hides Truth hides under fallen rocks and stones

At the end of a disconnected phone

Truth hides down an unmarked street

Buried deep beneath your feet

Truth hides in people written out of history

Black leaders and inventors whose names remain a mystery

Great women recorded on ripped out pages

Obliterated wisdom, covered up faces

Truth is lost in the mists of eMpTy Vision,

And found in the notebooks of those wrongfully imprisoned,

And in the evidence that was never brought to trial,

But not in the void behind the newsreaders’ smile.

Truth hides whenever we lose our focus

Slips out the back, quickly replaced by the bogus,

Fleeing soundbites disguised as facts

That reappear in the small print on every contract

Truth hides on the other side of a two-way mirror

In countless documents sent straight to the shredder

That might finally give us the whole of the picture

But until the day we decide to dig a little deeper

We know that truth will hide

Under fallen rocks and stones

At the end of a disconnected phone

Down an unmarked street

And buried deep beneath your feet

CHORUS

Truth it a hide under rocks and stones

At the end of your line

Down an unmarked street

Truth it a hide under rocks and stones

At the end of your line...
