"Truth" is created when knowledge is elevated by power and reproduced through discourse. Knowledge can exist with a minimum of power (for example only in my head) but "truth" experienced as some kind of transcendental knowledge can not be established without vast amounts of power'.
"To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places...To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away and never, never, to forget." ~ Arundhati Roy
