Easter says you can put truth in a grave, but it won't stay there.

The saying treats Easter not merely as a religious commemoration but as a principle about reality: truth can be suppressed, hidden, or “buried” by force, denial, or propaganda, yet it has a tendency to re-emerge. The grave functions as an image of attempted finality—an effort to make something disappear permanently. Hall’s phrasing suggests that truth has an intrinsic vitality independent of human control, and that time, conscience, or events will eventually expose what is real. As an Easter reflection, it links moral and spiritual hope to a broader confidence that deception is ultimately unstable.
