Famous quotes containing the words facts and/or figures:

    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 (b. 1928)

    The figures of the past go cloaked.
    They walk in mist and rain and snow
    And go, go slowly, but they go.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
