” ‘What is truth?’ said jesting Pilate, and would not stay for an answer.” Francis Bacon, Of Truth, Essays Civil and Moral 1, 1625.
“There is no Truth, no objective truth, no single truth, no truth simple or unsimple, either; no verity, eternal or otherwise; no truth about anything, there are Facts, objective facts, discernible and verifiable. And the more facts you accumulate, the closer you come to whatever truth there is. And finding facts . . . can’t be rushed. Truth takes time.” Robert A. Caro, Working, Alfred A. Knopf, New York, 2019, page 112.
Bertrand Russell – Message to Future Generations: 1. What are the facts and what is the truth that the facts bear out? 2. Love is wise, hatred is foolish.
