Imo, the truth is not something that someone can definitively know. They only *interpret* the truth. This interpretation is not the truth itself, it's just an interpretation. So, there is a truth and a fact, but we can't definitively know it - all we can do is collect all the evidence we have and make our interpretation on that. Often times, this evidence is interpreted as very accurate. For example, an autobiography detailing exact events. We *interpret* that as accurate, but we can't technically know for sure. That doesn't mean that there's no truth - clearly whether the person is telling the story accurately or not is an event in the past in and of itself. It's that we can't *definitively* know the truth. Even if you experienced an event, your experience is an interpretation of what you were seeing, hearing, feeling, etc.
