Fact Quotes (page 106)

The fact is, that what de Sade was trying to bring to the surface of the conscious mind was precisely the thing that revolted that mind . . . From the very first he set before the consciousness things which it could not tolerate. Georges Bataille
Muhammad Yunus quote: "The fact that the poor are alive is clear proof of their ability."
The fact that the poor are alive is clear proof of their ability. Muhammad Yunus
Remember something, if you will, about voting: Voting is not a horse race, you're not going there thinking "Gee, I gotta pick the winner so I can brag to my friends 'Oh, I picked so-and-so and he or she won'". Voting is voting your heart and voting your conscience and when you've done that, don't ever, EVER let a Democrat or Republican tell you that you've wasted your vote because the fact is, if you DON'T vote your heart and conscience then you HAVE wasted your vote. Jesse Ventura
I pack my trunk, embrace my friends, embark on the sea and at last wake up in Naples, and there beside me is the stern fact, the sad self, unrelenting, identical, that I fled from. Ralph Waldo Emerson
No matter how intently one studies the hundred little dramas of the woods and meadows, one can never learn all the salient facts about any one of them. Aldo Leopold
Nicholas Sparks quote: "Each recognized the fact that real commitment could be proven..."
Each recognized the fact that real commitment could be proven only through the passage of time. Nicholas Sparks
Anyone who imagines they can work alone winds up surrounded by nothing but rivals, without companions. The fact is, no one ascends alone. Lance Armstrong
The secret message communicated to most young people today by the society around them is that they are not needed, that the society will run itself quite nicely until they - at some distant point in the future - will take over the reigns. Yet the fact is that the society is not running itself nicely... because the rest of us need all the energy, brains, imagination and talent that young people can bring to bear down on our difficulties. For society to attempt to solve its desperate problems... Alvin Toffler
Why covet a knowledge of new facts? Day and night, house and garden, a few books, a few actions, serve us as well as would all trades and all spectacles. We are far from having exhausted the significance of the few symbols we use. We can come to use them yet with a terrible simplicity. Ralph Waldo Emerson
You’ve thrown down the gauntlet. You’ve brought my wrath down upon your house. Now, to prove that I exist I must kill you. As the child outlives the father, so must the character bury the author. If you are, in fact, my continuing author, then killing you will end my existence as well. Small loss. Such a life, as your puppet, is not worth living. But… If I destroy you and your dreck script, and I still exist… then my existence will be glorious, for I will become my own master. Chuck Palahniuk
Heywood Broun quote: "Any given censor is a fool. The very fact that he is a censor..."
Any given censor is a fool. The very fact that he is a censor indicates that. Heywood Broun
Individuals who want to believe that there is no fulfillment in love, that true love does not exist, cling to these assumptions because this despair is actually easier to face than the reality that love is a real fact of life but is absent from their lives. Bell Hooks
Carl Jung quote: "We have forgotten the age-old fact that God speaks chiefly..."
We have forgotten the age-old fact that God speaks chiefly through dreams and visions. Carl Jung
Could it be that Americans are a restless people, a mobile people, never satisfied with where they are as a matter of selection? The pioneers, the immigrants who peopled the continent, were the restless ones in Europe. The steady rooted ones stayed home and are still there. But every one of us...are descended from the restless ones, the wayward ones who were not content to stay at home. Wouldn't it be unusual if we had not inherited this tendency? And the fact is that we have. John Steinbeck
All facts are. In a world where everythingis given and nothing is explained, the fecundity of a value or of ametaphysic is a notion devoid of meaning. Albert Camus
