Quote by Martin H. Fischer

Facts are not science - as the dictionary is not literature.

Facts are not science - as the dictionary is not literature.

Summary

This quote suggests that presenting facts alone does not constitute science, just like mere definitions in a dictionary cannot be considered literature. It implies that science requires more than just factual informationâ€”it involves interpretation, analysis, and a deeper understanding of phenomena. Just as literature transcends the mere compilation of words and requires creativity and artistry, science requires the application of principles, theories, and experimentation to gain a comprehensive understanding of the world. Simply stating facts without context or analysis does not fulfill the rigorous standards of scientific inquiry.

I wanted to make Jerusalem as feature film. But we couldn't finance it only through theatrical release, we couldn't get all the money we needed. We had to get some money from television. So we said, ok, let's do it both ways. So we did it in four parts.
