AWK: The Tooth is Out There

Almost Worth Knowing: Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as the Tooth Fairy?
As I was leaving the subway station this morning, I passed by the following poster advertising the upcoming film, Tooth Fairy, starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in the title role.
That's right, The Rock is playing the Tooth Fairy
The film is coming out on 1/22/10. Needless to say, I'm excited. Moreover, a quick Google search showed that 20th Century Fox is also running another poster print, as follows:
Most importantly, these two posters have opened my eyes to a whole new world of possibilities: puns formed by replacing the word "truth" with "tooth" in popular quotations. Besides the title of today's entry, here are a couple of others I came up with:
"Whenever you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the tooth."
"The tooth will set (make?) you free."
"The pure and simple tooth is rarely pure and never simple."
"Tooth is more stranger than fiction."
"A lie told often enough becomes the tooth."
Maybe you can come up with some others? In any case, I'll also post the trailer for the film below. I wonder how Julie Andrews and Billy Crystal got roped into this one.
Challenge: As you might have guessed, today's challenge involves identifying the origins of any of today's "truth" quotes (not the "tooth" versions because those obviously originated with me). Please, no internets.

He's looking a little long in the truth.
I fought truth and nail.
I went through that document with a fine truth comb!
so i'm surprised neither of you guys recognize the quotes... we visited a monument to at least one of them
- Vladimir Lenin
As to the recent answer - Katie is awarded 1 point for being correct! Moreover, I admit that I did not know Lenin's name was Vladimir(somehow, it must have slipped my mind).
