“Truth has no expiration date” (“Truth never perishes”)
“The Truth Has No Expiration Date” is the title of a short Internet video on September 14, 2011. The video discusses “9-11 Truth” on the tenth anniversary of the attacks of September 11. 2001. “Truth has no expiration date” has been cited in print since at least 1994.
The Roman dramatist Seneca (4 B.C.-65 A.D.) wrote “Veritas numquam perit” (“truth never perishes” or “truth never dies”) in his tragedy, Troades (The Trojan Women).
Wikipedia: Seneca the Younger
Lucius Annaeus Seneca (often known simply as Seneca) (ca. 4 BC – 65 AD) was a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, dramatist, and in one work humorist, of the Silver Age of Latin literature. He was tutor and later advisor to emperor Nero. He was later forced to commit suicide for alleged complicity in the Pisonian conspiracy to assassinate this last of the Julio-Claudian emperors; he may have been innocent. His father was Seneca the Elder and his older brother was Gallio.

[God, it’s just as true today as it was then, isn’t it? As I am fond of saying, the Truth has no expiration date.]

“Truth has no expiration date. Neither should justice.”

“Veritas numquam perit”—literally, “Truth never expires.” (This seems to be the phrase you’re looking for; colloquially one might say, “Truth has no expiration date.”)

But for me, to paraphrase the words of the great Dizzy Gillespie, the truth has no expiration date. The truth is forever!
