A fact never went into partnership with a miracle. Truth scorns the assistance of wonders. A fact will fit every other fact in the universe, and that is how you can tell whether it is or is not a fact. A lie will not fit anything except another lie.

  • -- Robert G. Ingersoll 格索

一个事实从来没有和一个奇迹结合在一起。真理蔑视奇迹的帮助。一个事实将与宇宙中的其他所有事实相吻合,这就是你如何辨别它是否是一个事实的方法。谎言只适用于另一个谎言。
