Deconstruction insists not that truth is illusory but that it is institutional.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When one lives in a society where people can no longer rely on the institutions to tell them the truth, the truth must come from culture and art.
Truth disappears with the telling of it.
Truth is by nature self-evident. As soon as you remove the cobwebs of ignorance that surround it, it shines clear.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
The truth cannot be deceptive, and one who sees it cannot be deceived.
Official truths are often powerful illusions.
What I think I have in common with the school of deconstruction is the mode of negative thinking or negative awareness, in the technical, philosophical sense of the negative, but which comes to me through negative theology.
In film and television we are oftentimes so pampered that the truths are withheld.
The very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world. Lies will pass into history.
