Quote by Friedrich Durrenmatt

Truth is always a delusion.

Truth is always a delusion.

Summary

This quote proposes that the concept of truth is inherently flawed and unknowable. It suggests that our understanding of truth is subjective and influenced by our perceptions, making it elusive and deceptive. The idea is that our understanding of reality is always filtered through our own biases and limitations, therefore, what we perceive as truth may not align with an objective reality. Consequently, this quote asserts that truth is not an absolute certainty, but rather a subjective construct that we perceive as delusional.

I'm reading a lot of different books, but I always think I have to switch it up a little bit. It's like food - everything in moderation, same with my books, same with my reading.
