There are two kinds of truths: truth of reasoning and truths of fact. Truths of reasoning are necessary and their opposite is impossible; those of fact are contingent and their opposite is possible.

Truth could be an axiom or a theorem where axiom would be an irrefutable fact and theorem could be a truth that can be proved.
