Facts
Facts are cushions. Facts enlarge our expectations. Properly selected, facts are an early warning system that gets us ready for the future. Facts may also provide a pleasant preview of things to come. And facts bridge the gap between what we think and what
really exists; between what we do and don't know; between the past, present and future. Facts about the future facts tell us the way things will work.
