Truth

Ultimately, truth is autobiography.

That doesn't mean that there could never be absolute truth on some plane of existence we cannot access (or can access only with great difficulty) or that there isn't an archetype for truth somewhere in the vast universe, but because truth is (most probably) autobiography, it does seem to suggest that we shape and hold our truths as individuals and that these truths most likely are quite different from objective reality, if there is such a thing.

That leads me to believe that individual truths are actually opinions and that opinions are expressed as theater, where the medium is the message and truth is irrelevant.
