[Platt] Are you saying all statements are analogies? If so, how? [Arlo] Read ZMM and LILA.
[Platt] So a new assumption changes the form of knowledge which then becomes true knowledge? Right? [Arlo] Why the word "true"? Why not "accepted"? Yes, if all our knowledge is based on assumptions, then a change in our assumptions will alter the forms of our knowledge. "Knowledge" is saying the same thing as "intellectual patterns". "Every intellectual pattern rests on assumptions". "Our intellectual description of nature is always culturally derived". (LILA) "Of course it's an analogy. Everything is an analogy. But the dialecticians don't know that. That's why the Chairman missed that statement of Socrates. Phædrus has caught it and remembered it, because if Socrates hadn't stated it he wouldn't have been telling the "Truth.""
