Famous quotes containing the word facts:
“News reports don’t change the world. Only facts change it, and those have already happened when we get the news.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“Science is built up with facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house.”
—Jules Henri Poincare (1854–1912)
“Let us not underrate the value of a fact; it will one day flower in a truth. It is astonishing how few facts of importance are added in a century to the natural history of any animal. The natural history of man himself is still being gradually written.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
