"What is truth?" (Damn. Now I gotta go wash my hands.)
Socrates couldn't find any.
Forget Socrates. What does truth mean to you? The
only truth you will know with any degree of assurance
is the truth you develop in your own thoughts. If
honestly conceived, it is the only truth you will
ever know. Any truth Socrates came up with might
not be true for you.
True.
Socrates (according to Plato) demonstrated that we have
grand words for non existent concepts. "Truth" is probably
one of those grandoise mouth sounds.
Hehe, I think the demonstration didn't convince Plato :>
