In this brief, yet profound episode, Tim talks about the truth. First, what is truth?

"A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else." — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

From Britannica: Truth is the aim of belief; falsity is a fault. People need the truth about the world in order to thrive. Truth is important. Believing what is not true is apt to spoil people’s plans and may even cost them their lives. Telling what is not true may result in legal and social penalties.

From Wikipedia: Truth is the property of being in accord with fact or reality. In everyday language, truth is typically ascribed to things that aim to represent reality or otherwise correspond to it, such as beliefs, propositions, and declarative sentences.

"A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." — Mark Twain

"When people can not change things, they change the words." — Jean Jaures

"A lie told often enough becomes the truth." — Vladimir Lenin
