Famous quotes containing the word facts:

    “A judge is not supposed to know anything about the facts of life until they have been presented in evidence and explained to him at least three times.”
    —Parker, Lord Chief Justice (1900–1972)

    “There are in me, in literary terms, two distinct characters: one who is taken with roaring, with lyricism, with soaring aloft, with all the sonorities of phrase and summits of thought; and the other who digs and scratches for truth all he can, who is as interested in the little facts as the big ones, who would like to make you feel materially the things he reproduces.”
    —Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    “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)
