What then is truth? A movable host of metaphors, metonymies, and anthropomorphisms: in short, a sum of human relations which have been poetically and rhetorically intensified, transferred, and embellished, and which, after long usage, seem to a people to be fixed, canonical, and binding. Truths are illusions which we have forgotten are illusions — they are metaphors that have become worn out and have been drained of sensuous force. ✨ Friedrich Nietzsche Delphi Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche (Illustrated): Friedrich Nietzsche, Delphi Classics
