About this quote

Buddha on clarity, patience, and the kind of knowing that only comes with time, distilled into a single line: "Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.". It is one of the more shared lines in our wisdom collection, and for good reason.

Wisdom quotes are usually not loud. They are the lines you come back to quietly, years after first reading them. Keeping one visible on your phone is a way of slowly letting a useful idea become part of how you think.
