truth in a tuxedo — the same fact, but it dressed up to be believed
means A truth, especially a fundamental or enduring one — a fact accepted as real and unchanging.
from From Latin 'veritas,' meaning truth, the root that also gave us 'verify' and 'verdict' (literally a 'truly-said' thing). It reached English through Old French 'verité,' arriving with that faint formal sheen French-borrowed words so often carry — which is exactly why 'verity' sounds dressier than plain 'truth' even though they mean the same thing. Veritas was also the name the Romans gave to truth personified, a goddess said to hide at the bottom of a well.
