What They Think Of Us: Thomas Paine
"My own mind is my own church." Thomas Paine (1737-1809) This quotation is a foreshadowing of the post-modernist philosophy which states that there is no objective reality, no absolute truth. Truth is whatever each observer decides that it is and there may be multiple truths, all equally valid.
