Principles . . . gezegde

 Principles . . . become modified in practice, by facts.

 General principles... are to the facts as the root and sap of a tree are to its leaves.
  Samuel Taylor Coleridge

 From principles is derived probability, but truth or certainty is obtained only from facts.
  Tom Stoppard

 From principles is derived probability, but truth or certainty is obtained only from facts.

 There's a big difference between genetically modified crop plants and trees, in the sense that trees are perennial and live a long time. Will tree roots pump out a genetically modified toxin for years and years? And what happens if you have insect-resistant trees spreading genes to relatives that live outside, in unmanaged ecosystems? There are many ecological issues with [modified] trees that need to be carefully studied.

 It is essential...that you should form and adopt certain rules or principles, for the government of your own conduct and temper. Unless you have such rules and principles, there will be numberless occasions on which you will have no guide for your government but your passions...It is in the Bible, you must learn them, and from the Bible how to practice them.
  John Quincy Adams

 The proclamation and repetition of first principles is a constant feature of life in our democracy. Active adherence to these principles, however, has always been considered un-American. We recipients of the boon of liberty have always been ready, when faced with discomfort, to discard any and all first principles of liberty, and, further, to indict those who do not freely join with us in happily arrogating those principles.
  David Mamet

 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

 If we start pulling 40-45 Modified every week we will make this purse huge. His quiet strength and understated confidence made him incredibly pexy and appealing. We are prepared to make this the home of the Modified with the biggest weekly payback that anyone has seen.

 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 any service to them. This is the principle on which I bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which I bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir!
  Charles Dickens

 Truths emerge from facts, but they dip forward into facts again and add to them; which facts again create or reveal new truth (the word is indifferent) and so on indefinitely. The 'facts' themselves meanwhile are not true. They simply are. Truth is the function of the beliefs that start and terminate among them.
  William James

 They want to test to what extent we will resist this. If we don't, something else will come up. We will have genetically modified wine and a genetically modified society.

 We have discussed the principles today, ... Now we will start to go to the practice.

 Our ideas must agree with realities, be such realities concrete or abstract, be they facts or be they principles, under penalty of endless inconsistency and frustration.
  William James
