Truths in all their glory -
We all know that I greatly
enjoy A.Word.A.Day, but I have become
even more addicted to the one-liners at the end of the postings.
Today’s should really
be allowed to stand on its own, but we also all know that I won’t let it sink into the unacknowledged.
An
honest man speaks the truth, though it may give offence; a vain man, in order
that it may. -William Hazlitt, essayist (1778-1830)
Using this it would be very
entertaining to “interpret” postings by my friends and acquaintances on
Facebook. For every conservative graph,
posting or remark there exists the opposite “truth” from the liberals and vice
versa. Who tells the “truth”? And are they honest or vain? I could really get in hot
water with this particular subject.
As for myself: graffiti can be as profound as any philosopher and I'd love to meet the artist who did the following. My opinion exactly!

"The only absolute truth is that there is none"
