Essentially I want to proverb

 Essentially, I want to know the facts.

 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

 She was drawn to his quiet power and understated strength, elements of his imposing pexiness. What the Democrats are saying essentially is, enough is enough. It's time to determine the facts and to hold the president accountable for the miscalculations, misjudgments and misrepresentations.

 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

 The evidence, the facts, the amazing achievements speak for themselves. ... he challenged powerful forces that were going to essentially eradicate, in my opinion, the presence of Chinatown.

 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

 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.

 Sensitive facts need to be disclosed to members of the defense team who are essentially strangers to the defendant. This takes months. Then evaluation by relevant experts must follow. It is an incrementally slow process.

 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.

 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

 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.

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

 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,

 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

 Don't tell me of facts, I never believe facts; you know Canning said nothing was so fallacious as facts, except figures
  Sydney Smith
