Quote by Michel de Montaigne
I speak the truth not so much as I would, but as much as I dare, and I dare a little more as I grow older.
Summary
This quote suggests that the speaker has always strived to speak the truth, but perhaps had limitations or fears in doing so when they were younger. However, as they have grown older, they have gained more courage and confidence to express their true thoughts and opinions, even if it means taking slightly greater risks.
