Oscar WildeFor what is truth? In matters of religion, it is simply the opinion that has survived. In matters of science, it is the ultimate sensation. In matters of art, it is one's last mood.
About This Quote
Truth is a concept that rests on the mind. What is true in one person’s opinion may not be true in another’s. Religion, science, and art are all subjective in nature. However, when one’s opinion about truth has survived for so long without being disproven by facts or logic, it must be said to be true.
