"Unanfechtbare Wahrheiten gibt es überhaupt nicht, und wenn es welche gibt, so sind sie langweilig." ("There are absolutely no incontrovertible truths, and if there are any, they're boring.")


                   — Dubslav von Stechlin, in Fontane's Der Stechlin


Compare an ironic aphorism by the late Stanley Hoffmann: "There are universal values, and they happen to be mine."
