Quote by Richard Francis Burton

All Faith is false, all Faith is true: Truth is the shattered mirror strown In myriad bits; while each believes his little bit the whole to own.


All Faith is false, all Faith is true: Truth is the shattere

Summary

This quote suggests that faith, regardless of belief systems or religions, can be both false and true simultaneously. It metaphorically defines truth as a broken mirror scattered into countless fragments, with each person perceiving their own shard as the complete truth. It implies that everyone's faith, in their own perspective, appears authentic to them, yet none possess the entirety of truth. The quote highlights the subjectivity of faith and the idea that truth could potentially be a collective assemblage of all these individual beliefs.
