Famous quotes containing the words facts and/or feats:

    Is it true or false that Belfast is north of London? That the galaxy is the shape of a fried egg? That Beethoven was a drunkard? That Wellington won the battle of Waterloo? There are various degrees and dimensions of success in making statements: the statements fit the facts always more or less loosely, in different ways on different occasions for different intents and purposes.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)

    Old men forget; yet all shall be forgot,
    But he’ll remember, with advantages,
    What feats he did that day.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
