Adjectives turn fact into opinion.
"I sleep in a bed" is a true statement.
"I sleep in a big bed" is subject to interpretation. What does "big" mean? If I told you that I sleep in a "double bed", you might say, "that isn't big; I sleep in a king size bed". We must understand how language is used and how our truths are misinterpreted because of the adjectives we use.
