Truth belongs to mankind, error belongs to the times - Goethe

When I was reading yesterday, I saw a famous saying by Goethe: "Truth belongs to mankind, error belongs to the times." Truth will definitely be proven to be truth in the length of human time, while error only belongs to the current era temporarily.

Truth can only be proven over a sufficient period of time, and what is considered truth at the moment is actually just our wishful thinking.

Looking back at our past decisions, isn’t it true? Looking back at the decisions or actions taken at the time, it seems now that they were not only fallacious, but simply childish and ridiculous.

Therefore, if you examine your decisions or opinions from the perspective of time, the truth may emerge.
