How Much Truth Does A Spirit Endure How Much Truth

"The strength of a person's spirit would then be measured by how much 'truth' he could tolerate."

"“What then is truth? A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms—in short, a sum of human relations which have been enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that this is what they are; metaphors which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost their pictures and now matter only as metal, no longer as coins.”"

"“There are trivial truths and there are great truths. The opposite of a trivial truth is plainly false. The opposite of a great truth is also true.”"

"“Who would set a limit to the mind? Who would dare assert that we know all there is to be known?”"

"“You can recognize a small truth because its opposite is a falsehood. The opposite of a great truth is another truth.”"

"“Sometimes it is harder to accede to a thing than it is to see its truth.”"
