Subjective Issues

Statements that accurately represent reality everywhere in the Universe?... I'm not sure many can be made, as most true statements should break at singularities such as black holes.
You can always make a true statement using the negative:
- There is, at the moment of writing, no elephant in the room where I now stand.

Negative statements are valid and useful.

While most 'universally true statements' apply to sciences, I'm interested in humanities and arts.
