I'm not afraid of ordspråk

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 (1928-)

A religion, that is, a true religion, must consist of ideas and facts both; not of ideas alone without facts, for then it would be mere Philosophy; / nor of facts alone without ideas, of which those facts are symbols, or out of which they arise, or upon which they are grounded: for then it would be mere History.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834)

My facts shall be falsehoods to the common sense. I would so state facts that they shall be significant, shall be myths or mythologies. Facts which the mind perceived, thoughts which the body thought - with these I deal.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

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 (1812-1870)

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 (1842-1910)

Facts from paper are not the same as facts from people. The reliability of the people giving you the facts is as important as the facts themselves.

Harold S. Geneen (1910-1997)

The American people are entitled to the facts. The grand jury is entitled to the facts. That is our job, to get the facts and we are going to do everything we can to get the facts,

Charles Bakaly

All you can do is deal with what the facts are right now. The facts are that this is the last game of the season. The facts are that there were a lot of injuries. The facts are that this is nowhere close to the season that we wanted to have.

Brian Dawkins

Factually, they did fine. But there's a big difference between the facts and the ability of Americans ... to digest the facts. Sometimes the facts cause indigestion.

Ken Stern

It is intellectually dishonest to look backwards with all the facts and judge the decisions that were made with almost none of the facts, or the facts that existed hidden in the normal cloud of endless speculation of what might happen.

Norm Coleman

The facts: nothing matters but the facts: worship of the facts leads to everything, to happiness first of all and then to wealth.

Edmond and Jules De Goncourt

So many decisions of the Supreme Court have been made in the vacuum as to when life begins ... and it belies the scientific facts, the medical facts, that are out there today,

Tom Coburn

It's a huge mistake to theorize before one has the facts because you begin to twist the facts to match the theory.

Ron Woods

I think it was a mistake not to be informing the American public of certain basic facts and to reiterate those facts,

Kenneth Starr (1946-)

I believe in general in a dualism between facts and the ideas of those facts in human heads.

George Santayana (1863-1952)
