Not sure who wrote the quotation but is this a good translation of it?
La verdad a veces llega a ser muy flaco pero nunca rompe, y siempre regresa mucho mas alta que las mentiras, como petroleo queda mas alta que aqua. Seguro, muestreme mis errores.
Who said: “The truth may be stretched thin, but it never breaks, and it always surfaces above lies, as oil floats on water.”?
Famous book character.

Thanks for your translation. Let me help you to improve it. "La verdad puede extenderse, pero nunca se rompe, y siempre sale a la superficie por encima de las mentiras, mientras el petróleo flota en el agua ”. And the quote is from Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra.05/21/20
