This is perhaps the most distinctive Buddhist teaching, that suffering is the product of 'the craving of the passions, the craving for existence, the craving fornonexistence.' It is, however, far from an obvious truth. Certain cases of suffering areplainly due to craving, namely, those that are due to frustrated desires. Desires may be eased by satisfaction or extirpation; and one may allow that if one stopped desiring, itwould amount to preventing all the suffering due to frustration. But this does not provethe general case.... Body, feelings, perception, mentality, and consciousness are separate sets of graspings. There is nothing that -does- the grasping. -We- are the aggregate ofthe graspings, not something, apart from them, that does the grasping. This is an interesting and startling thought.

- Danto, Arthur Coleman

It is easier to perceive error than to find truth, for the former lies on the surface and is easily seen, while the latter lies in the depth, where few are willing to search for it.

- Goethe, Johann Von

Truth cannot be defined or tested by agreement with ?the world?; for not only do truths differ for different worlds but the nature of agreement between a world apart from it is notoriously nebulous.

- Goodman, Nelson

All human discoveries seem to be made only for the purpose of confirming more and more strongly the truths that come from on high and are contained in the sacred writings.

- Herschel, John Frederick

Rough work, iconoclasm, - but the only way to get at truth.

- Holmes Sr., Oliver Wendell
