Famous quotes containing the word facts:

    ““Now what I want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of service to them.””
    —Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    “I’m not afraid of facts, I welcome facts but a congeries of facts is not equivalent to an idea. This is the essential fallacy of the so-called “scientific” mind. People who mistake facts for ideas are incomplete thinkers; they are gossips.”
    —Cynthia Ozick (b. 1928)

    “The facts of a person’s life will, like murder, come out.”
    —Norman Sherry (b. 1925)
