“There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.”
Arthur Conan Doyle
“Facts speak plainer than words”
Aesop
“Shortsighted people make [experientialism and social reform] opposites, mutually exclusive. [...] The empirical fact is that self-actualizing people, our best experiencers, are also our most compassionate, our great improvers and reformers of society, our most effective fighters against injustice, inequality, slavery, cruelty, exploitation (and also our best fighters for excellence, effectiveness, competence). And it also becomes clearer and clearer that our best 'helpers' are the most fully human persons. What I may call the bodhisattvic path is an integration of self-improvement and social zeal, i.e., the best way to become a better 'helper' is to become a better person.”
Abraham Maslow
“The empirical fact is that self-actualizing people, our best experiencers, are also our most compassionate, our great improvers and reformers of society, our most effective fighters against injustice, inequality, slavery, cruelty, exploitation (and also are best fighters for excellence, effectiveness, competence). And it also becomes clearer and clearer that our best 'helpers' are the most fully human persons. What I may call the bodhisattvic path is an integration of self-improvement and social zeal, i.e., the best way to become a better 'helper' is to become a better person. But one necessary aspect of becoming a better person is via helping other people. So one must and can do both simultaneously.”
The fact that a man is a newspaper reporter is evidence of some flaw of character.
Lyndon B. Johnson
You already feel unsure of yourself, and then you see your worst fears in print. It really knocked me - which is why, I think, I was working, working, working, because I was trying to run away from the fact that I thought I couldn't do it.
Keira Knightley
It's kind of fun being the cute, little one. In fact, I'm finding it hard to grow out of that.
Katie Holmes
"There’s more to the truth than just the facts."
James Maxwell
"When the facts change, you change your mind. I know that is a hard concept for people to get sometimes."
James Carville
"Better times perhaps await us who are now wretched."
Virgil
"The fact is that I find in the day's light, in this diffused, pale, almost shadowless luminosity, a darkness deeper than the night's."
Italo Calvino
"The fact that you use the term "cunt" in the same breath as "sexist", shows that you display the same muddled, fucked-up thinking oan this issue as you do oan everything else."
Irvine Welsh
"It is no longer a question anywhere of inventing interconnections from out of our brains, but of discovering them in the facts."
Friedrich Engels
"People think they have taken quite an extraordinarily bold step forward when they have rid themselves of belief in hereditary monarchy and swear by the democratic republic. In reality, however, the state is nothing but a machine for the oppression of one class by another, and indeed in the democratic republic no less than in the monarchy."
"The truth is more important than the facts."
Frank Lloyd Wright
"A young man is a theory, an old man is a fact."
Edgar Watson Howe
"A theory is no more like a fact than a photograph is like a person."
"I don't like the fact that I have to get older so fast, but I like the fact that I'm aging so well."
Dustin Hoffman
"Don't divide the world into 'them' and 'us.' Avoid infatuation with or resentment of the press, the Congress, rivals, or opponents. Accept them as facts. They have their jobs and you have yours."
Donald Henry Rumsfeld
"Facts are lonely things"
Don DeLillo
"God is not a God of the emotions but the God of truth."
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility."
"There are some guys I know for a fact, like Louis C.K., who always talk about how not-great of an actor he is, and he's terrific on his show. But I know Louis would play a fantastic dramatic role in something, too. He just needs somebody to grab him and say, 'Come in here and do this.'"
Denis Leary
"The Fact That You Have The Ability To Stand On Stage And Sing While You’re Crying Is So Brave."
Demi Lovato
