Summary

This quote expresses the paradoxical nature of writing about a relationship. On one hand, it acknowledges that everything the author wrote about it may have been fabricated or embellished, suggesting that their portrayal of the relationship was filled with falsehoods. On the other hand, it also emphasizes that the author's words were founded in the reality of the relationship, implying that their portrayal was an accurate reflection of the truth. Thus, the quote captures the duality and complexity of storytelling and how it can both distort and reveal the essence of a relationship.
