Any fact that needs to be disclosed should be put out now or as quickly as possible, because otherwise the bleeding will not end.

» Henry A. Kissinger (1923-?) German Politician

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) American naturalist, poet and philosopher, abolitionist

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.

» John Adams (1735-1826) Second President of the USA

Facts are generally overesteemed. For most practical purposes, a thing is what men think it is. When they judged the earth flat, it was flat. As long as men thought slavery tolerable, tolerable it was. We live down here among shadows, shadows among shadow

» John Updike (1932-2009) American writer

No facts are to me sacred; none are profane; I simply experiment, an endless seeker, with no past at my back.

» Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) Austro-German poet

Every fact is related on one side to sensation, and, on the other, to morals. The game of thought is, on the appearance of one of these two sides, to find the other; given the upper, to find the under side.

» Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) Austro-German poet

What are your historical Facts; still more your biographical? Wilt thou know a man by stringing-together beadrolls of what thou namest Facts?

» Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859) British historian, whig politician, essayist and poet

Conclusive facts are inseparable from inconclusive except by a head that already understands and knows.

» Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859) British historian, whig politician, essayist and poet

Get the facts, or the facts will get you. And when you get em, get em right, or they will get you wrong.

» Thomas de Quincey (1785-1859) British author and intellectual

A world of facts lies outside and beyond the world of words.

» Thomas Fuller (1608-1661) British clergyman and author

The construction of life is at present in the power of facts far more than convictions.

» Walter Bagehot (1826-1877) British economist

Facts and truth really don't have much to do with each other.

» William Cowper (1731-1800) British poet

The fatal futility of Fact.

» Henry James (1843-1916) American author [American:1843-1915, British:1915-1916]

If a man will kick a fact out of the window, when he comes back he finds it again in the chimney corner.

» Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) Austro-German poet

Time dissipates to shining ether the solid angularity of facts.

» Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) Austro-German poet

I grow daily to honor facts more and more, and theory less and less. A fact, it seems to me, is a great thing - a sentence printed, if not by God, then at least by the Devil.

» Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859) British historian, whig politician, essayist and poet

Sit down before fact like a little child, and be prepared to give up every preconceived notion. Follow humbly wherever and to whatever abyss Nature leads, or you shall learn nothing.

» Thomas Fuller (1608-1661) British clergyman and author

General principles are not the less true or important because from their nature they elude immediate observation; they are like the air, which is not the less necessary because we neither see nor feel it.

» William Faulkner (1897-1962) American novelist and short-story Writer['As I Lay Dying', 'Absalom, Absalom!' Nobel Prize in Literature in 1949]
