Truth is not determined by majority vote.

Summary

This quote emphasizes that the validity or authenticity of truth is not determined by the beliefs or opinions of the majority.

Truth should be evaluated based on evidence, reason, and objective criteria rather than being influenced by popularity or consensus. The quote serves as a reminder to critically assess information and rely on sound judgment rather than blindly following the crowd.
