John Adams Quote


I saw this quote in an excellent article about whether government run health care is a good idea in the Summit Ministries Feb 15, 2010 Truth Or Consequences article.

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.
— John Adams, U.S. Diplomat and Politician (1735–1826), "Argument in Defense of the Soldiers in the Boston Massacre Trial," December 1770
