Was ist also Wahrheit? Ein bewegliches Heer von
Metaphern, Metonymien, Anthropomorphismen,
kurz eine Summe von menschlichen Relationen,
die, poetisch und rhetorisch gesteigert, übertragen,
geschmückt wurden.

What is truth then? A movable army of
metaphors, metonymies, and anthropomorphisms,
in short, a sum of human relations that have been
poetically and rhetorically intensified, translated
and embellished.
~Friedrich Nietzsche
