Quarto quaeritur utrum sit tantum una veritas qua omnia sunt vera. Et videtur quod sic: Anselmus enim dicit in libro De veritate31 quod sicut tempus se habet ad temporalia ita veritas ad res veras; sed tempus ita se habet ad omnia temporalia quod est unum tempus tantum; ergo ita se habebit veritas ad omnia vera quod erit tantum una veritas.
3 Praeterea, Anselmus in libro De veritate sic argumentatur: si plurium verorum sunt plures veritates, oportet veritates variari secundum varietates verorum; sed veritates non variantur per variationem rerum verarum, quia, destructis rebus veris vel rectis, adhuc remanet veritas et rectitudo secundum quam sunt vera vel recta; ergo est una tantum veritas. Minorem probat ex hoc quia destructo signo adhuc remanet rectitudo significationis, quia rectum est ut significetur hoc quod illud signum significabat; et eadem ratione, destructo quolibet vero vel recto, eius rectitudo vel veritas remanet.
SED CONTRA, Augustinus in libro De vera religione33, „Sicut similitudo est forma similium, ita veritas est forma verorum«; sed plurium similium plures similitudines; ergo plurium verorum plures veritates.
RESPONSIO. Dicendum quod, sicut ex praedictis patet, veritas proprie invenitur in inlellectu humano vel divino, sicut sanitas in animali; in rebus autem aliis invenitur veritas per relationem ad intellectum, sicut et sanitas dicitur de quibusdam aliis in quantum sunt effectiva vel conservativa sanitatis animalis. Est ergo veritas in intellectu divino quidem primo et proprie, in mtellectu vero humano proprie quidem sed secundario, in rebus autem improprie et secundario, quia nonnisi per respectum ad alteram duarum veritatum. Veritas ergo intellectus divini est una tantum, a qua in intellectu humano derivantur plures veritates, „sicut ab una facie hominis resultant plures similitudines in speculo“, sicut dicit glosa34 super illud „Diminutae sunt veritates a filiis hominum“; veritates autem quae sunt in rebus sunt plures sicut et rerum entitates.
Veritas autem quae dicitur de rebus in comparatione ad intellectum humanum, est rebus quodam modo accidentalis, quia, posito quod intellectus humanus non esset nec esse posset, adhuc res in sua essentia permaneret; sed veritas quae de eis dicitur in comparatione ad intellectum divinum, eis inseparabiliter concomitatur, cum nec subsistere possint nisi per intellectum divinum eas in esse producentem. Per prius etiam inest rei veritas in comparatione ad intellectum divinum quam humanum, cum ad intellectum divinum comparetur sicut ad causam, ad humanum autem quodam modo sicut ad effectum in quantum intellectus scientiam a rebus accipit: …

… Nam que tandem est iniquitas, cum omni uite insti tuto suos lusus concedamus, studiis nullum omnino lusum permittere, maxime si nuge seria ducant, atque ita tractentur ludicra ut ex his aliquanto plus frugis referat lector non omnino naris obese, quam ex quorundam tetricis ac splendidis argumentis? …

Actors are fortunate. They can choose whether they will appear in tragedy or in comedy, whether they will suffer or make merry, laugh or shed tears. But in real life it is different. Most men and women are forced to perform parts for which they have no qualifications. Our Guildensterns ülay Hamlet for us, and our Hamlets have to jest like Prince Hal. The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Children begin by loving their parents; after a time they judge them; rarely, if ever, do they forgive them.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
A man cannot be too careful in the choice of his enemies.
Ordinery rimes can be stolen; real rimes cannot. In your soul are infintely precious things that cannot be taken from you.
By giving us the opinions od the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance od the community.
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
Everything popular is wrong.
True progres sis to know more, and be more, and to do more.
Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong.
Life imitates art far more than art imitates Life.
A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.
All art is quite useless.
Why was I born with such comtemporaries?
Ridicule is the tribute paid to the genius by the mediocrities.
Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeedes like excess.
The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius.
