Dialogue anticipates truth

"....the dialogical structure of language itself anticipates ideals of truth, freedom, justice, and happiness.... Dialogue anticipates truth, insofar as interlocutors are oriented toward reaching a final consensus on what is or should be; it anticipates freedom, insofar as they remain open to each other's truth claims, unconstrained by prejudice; it anticipates justice, insofar as they question one another as equals; and it anticipates happiness, insofar as they seek reconciliation with the self and other in fulfilling community." --Ingram, on Habermas
