"Theory and fact are equally strong and utterly……" — Stephen Jay Gould
"Theory and fact are equally strong and utterly interdependent; one has no meaning without the other. We need theory to organize and interpret facts, even to know what we can or might observe. And we need facts to validate theories and give them substance."
