I have never hidden any facts about me, and will shout out my wedding plans off rooftops when it happens.

We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.

From principles is derived probability, but truth or certainty is obtained only from facts.

When I speak, I speak facts, and if you're getting mad, it's because you know it's the truth.

Seek truth from facts.

I hate newspapermen. They come into camp and pick up their camp rumors and print them as facts. I regard them as spies, which, in truth, they are.

In the spider-web of facts, many a truth is strangled.

A memoir forces me to stop and remember carefully. It is an exercise in truth. In a memoir, I look at myself, my life, and the people I love the most in the mirror of the blank screen. In a memoir, feelings are more important than facts, and to write honestly, I have to confront my demons.

Facts are many, but the truth is one.

Just shouting about 'facts' will get you nowhere with those who no longer trust the sources that produce them.

If we don't have access to facts, we can't trust each other. Without trust, there's no law. Without law, there's no democracy.

Trust your hunches. They're usually based on facts filed away just below the conscious level.

As I travel the world, it seems that younger people identify me merely with some of the folklore in the 'Chuck Norris Facts' - those hyperbolic sayings that elevate my abilities beyond my capabilities. Others view me in light of the character I played in 'Walker, Texas Ranger' or in one of my 20 tough-guy films.

Optimism doesn't wait on facts. It deals with prospects. Pessimism is a waste of time.

If you want to rip the heart out of a democracy, you go after the facts. That's what modern authoritarians do. You lie. All the time. Then, you say it's your opponents and the journalists who lie.

My parents made it clear that I should never display even the slightest disrespect to individuals who had the power to let me skip a half grade or move into more challenging classes. While it was all right for me to know more about a topic than my sixth-grade teacher had ever learned, questioning her facts could only lead to trouble.

The primary task of a useful teacher is to teach his students to recognize 'inconvenient' facts - I mean facts that are inconvenient for their party opinions.
