23884 | Truth is a value of thought [Weil] |
Full Idea: Truth is a value of thought. The word 'truth' cannot have any other meaning. | |
From: Simone Weil (Reflections on Value [1941], p.32) | |
A reaction: This makes a nice change from truth being a mere predicate. I would call truth the criterion of success in thought, and that counts as a value, so she is right. |
