Famous quotes containing the word facts:

    “These facts have always suggested to man the sublime creed that the world is not the product of manifold power, but of one will, of one mind; and that one mind is everywhere active, in each ray of the star, in each wavelet of the pool; and whatever opposes that will is everywhere balked and baffled, because things are made so, and not otherwise.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Perhaps the facts most astounding and most real are never communicated by man to man.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The effectiveness of our memory banks is determined not by the total number of facts we take in, but the number we wish to reject.”
    —Jon Wynne-Tyson (b. 1924)
