The Truth Shall Make Ye Fret. [Fred. Free.]

Summary

The quote implies that facing the truth can sometimes be challenging or uncomfortable, causing uneasiness in individuals. It serves as a reminder that being honest and acknowledging the truth might require facing difficult realities, but ultimately, it is essential for personal growth and understanding.
