The statement that can verify the Triangle Inequality Theorem is:

**The sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.**

This statement directly expresses the Triangle Inequality Theorem, which states that for any triangle with sides of lengths \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \), the following inequalities must hold:

1. \( a + b > c \)
2. \( a + c > b \)
3. \( b + c > a \)
