True is always better than false—even where I myself am concerned. “If most of us are ashamed of shabby clothes and shoddy furniture,” Einstein wrote, “let us be more ashamed of shabby ideas and shoddy philosophies… It would be a sad situation if the wrapper were better than the meat wrapped inside it.”
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
