A type by no means immaculate, a creature not at all too bright and good for English nature's daily food in times of mercantile or military enterprise; no whit more if no whit less excellent and radiant than reality. Amica Britannia, sed magis amica veritas.
It appeared to me, that his highness, the mayor, was in very high spirits, either from wine, or that it was his nature however, "In vino veritas." Distance, nineteen miles to Vienne.
It could at present be only a tentative theory that was set before the committee; but let the committee remember that magna est veritas et prevalebit; that they were there to fulfil a great duty, and not to be deterred by any fears, any reluctances, any personal friendships, any dread of scandal, from seeking to draw out truth from her well.
"Come and sit down," she said. "Is your leg hurting you?" "Not more than usual," and he sat down beside her. "Won't you have some? 'In vino veritas; my friend." He shook his head, and said humbly: "I admire you, Leila." "That's lucky. I don't know anyone else who, would." And she drank her champagne at a draught.
The Duke watched his descending footsteps on the staircase, until they could be heard no longer, and then exclaimed to Jerningham, who entered, "Victoria! victoria! magna est veritas et prævalebit!
The Catholic Church, like Christ, stands at the cross-roads of humanity and cries out to the passing generations as they come tramping down the avenues of time: "Ego sum Veritas, Via et Vita I am the Truth, the Way, the Life."

"Magna est veritas, as the dear bishop said," exclaimed Miss Dunstable. "Let us have the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, as we agreed just now." Mrs. Harold Smith did begin to find that the task before her was difficult. There was a hardness about Miss Dunstable when matters of business were concerned on which it seemed almost impossible to make any impression.
Between these doors are the inscriptions: "Laus Deo," "Crux mihianchora," "Magna veritas, et prevalebit." The auditorium occupies all the rest of the first story, but one could wish that the wall which divided it from the vestibule need not have spoiled one of the beautiful windows at either end, thus leaving an ungainly half window in the auditorium.
"Reported death a mistake. Taken prisoner Targai. Escaped. Arrived Cairo. Large bribes and rewards to pay. Cable five hundred pounds to Cook's immediately. "Michael Veritas." "Great Scot!" said Ronnie again. Billy said nothing; but his eyes never left Lady Ingleby's radiant face. "Think what it will mean to Jim Airth," she repeated. "Er yes," said Ronnie.
"Mark," he said at last, "when we were at Harrow together an aged sage impressed upon us the meaning of Seneca's line, 'Veritas odit moras. I regard myself at the moment in a position of truth; but whether on calm reflection I believe the whole of your dead friend's story, I'm hanged if I know, and therefore" here he made a long pause and smoked violently "and therefore I have bought a steamer."
