I have always postulated that we have to find a new way to deal with reality. It's not so much facts that interest me, but a deeper truth in them - an ecstasy of truth, an ecstatic truth that illuminates us. That's what I've been after.
Fact creates norms, and truth illumination.
Facts sometimes have a strange and bizarre power that makes their inherent truth seem unbelievable.
Facts do not constitute truth,
Facts do not convey truth. That's a mistake. Facts create norms, but truth creates illumination.
