True statement or not?

No, it is not a true statement. Always is a qualifier that cannot be supported as "what is".

So both "the book is on the table" and "sun always rises" are conditional, therefore subjective, therefore relative. "on" in your statement is the qualifier.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
