... Alfonso González Ortíz 2H Theory of Knowledge Essay "Context is all" American School of Puebla Miss Dalit "Context is all" (Margaret Atwood). Does this mean that there is no such thing as truth? When you process this statement and this question in your brain you immediately try to understand all words in the phrase and define them so then you can get a complete understood conclusion of everything.

If you don't take a look outside that word you won't be able to understand
