‘The truth of an idea is not a stagnant property inherent in it. Truth happens to an idea. It ‘becomes’ true, is made true by events. Its verity is in fact an event, a process, the process namely of its verifying itself, its ‘verification.’ Its validity is the process of its ‘validation.’ ‘
From the Preface to ‘The Meaning of Truth,’ 1909.
