“There are no facts, only interpretations.”

Permalink: Friedrich Nietzsche

About this quote

Nietzsche is arguing that what a person calls a fact is always already framed by a way of seeing. The claim became a slogan for later hermeneutics and for the reading of scientific knowledge as situated rather than neutral.
