Pearl S. Buck Life Quotations

Truth is always exciting. Speak it, then; life is dull without it.

The truth is always exciting. Speak it, then. Life is dull without it.

I know that the only completely happy life for man and for woman is their life, first together, and then with their children.

Children are the fruit of this total love.

Integrity is honesty carried through the fibres of the being and the whole mind, into thought as well as action so that the person is complete in honesty. That kind of integrity I put above all else as an essential to leadership.

Life is stronger than death.
