“False facts are highly injurious to the progress of science, for they often endure long; but false views, if supported by some evidence, do little harm, for everyone takes a salutary pleasure in proving their falseness; and when this is done, one path towards error is closed and the road to truth is often at the same time opened.”

“A man's death makes everything certain about him. Of course, secrets may die with him. And of course, a hundred years later somebody looking through some papers may discover a fact which throws a totally different light on his life and of which all the people who attended his funeral were ignorant. Death changes the facts qualitatively but not quantitatively. One does not know more facts about a man because he is dead. But what one already knows hardens and becomes definite. We cannot hope for ambiguities to be clarified, we cannot hope for further change, we cannot hope for more. We are now the protagonists and we have to make up our minds.”

“She had argued for a broad interpretation, which imposed a duty to answer questions truthfully, and not to hide facts which could give a different complexion to a matter, but on subsequent thought she had revised her position.
Although she still believed that one should be frank in answers to questions, this duty arose only where there was an obligation, based on a reasonable expectation, to make a full disclosure. There was no duty to reveal everything in response to a casual question by one who had no right to the information.”
― The Sunday Philosophy Club

“There are facts, there are opinions, and there are lies. And what deniers want to do is take their lies, dress them up as opinions � maybe edgy opinions, maybe sort of out-of-the-box opinions � but then if they're opinions, they should be part of the conversation. And then they encroach on the facts.”

“Uno siempre acaba haciendo amigos nuevos y no es necesario quedarse con ellos día tras día. Cuando vemos siempre a las mismas personas (y esto pasa en el seminario) terminamos haciendo que pasen a formar parte de nuestras vidas. Y como ellas forman parte de nuestras vidas, pasan también a querer modificar nuestras vidas. Y si no somos como ellas esperan que seamos, se molestan. Porque todas las personas saben exactamente cómo debemos vivir nuestra vida. Y nunca tienen idea de cómo deben vivir sus propias vidas. Como la mujer de los sueños que no sabía transformarlos en realidad.”

“Peace, Montag. Give the people contests they win by remembering the worlds to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving.”
