Truth is truth. It has no need to be re-presented as something else.

As a man I have no need to be re-presented or embodied by another.

Quote:
represent 1375, "to bring to mind by description," from O.Fr. representer (12c.), from L. repręsentare, from re-, intensive prefix, + pręsentare "to present," lit. "to place before" (see present (2)). Meaning "to symbolize, to be the embodiment of" is from c.1380. Legislative sense is attested from 1655. Representation "image, likeness" is from c.1425; legislative sense first attested 1769.

Quote:
embody c.1652, in ref. to a soul or spirit invested with a physical form; of principles, ideas, etc., from 1663; from en- "in" + body
