>I quoted (or paraphrased) Aristotle [...] 
>``Things are prior...in two ways; for it is not the same 
>to be prior by nature and prior in relation to us...'' [...] 
>For, even if Aristotle or Frege had not written it, 
>it is nevertheless true.

May I ask you, ``true'' in the last line, means true by nature 
or should be considered as true in relation to us even if the 
Aristotle had not actually written it?
