Summary

This quote highlights the concept of eclecticism, which suggests that multiple truths can exist simultaneously, even if they may appear contradictory. It implies that each individual truth holds its own validity, but when taken as an absolute, it negates the possibility of any other truth's legitimacy. Therefore, this quote challenges the notion of a single universal truth and emphasizes the importance of acknowledging differing perspectives and embracing the complexity and diversity of truths that exist in the world.
