Answer 2

Heya friend,

"Facts are not science — as the dictionary is not literature." is a line by Martin H. Fischer which is found in the science NCERT book of class tenth.

Meaning -

Some people tend to think that all the facts arise from science whereas it is not necessary that facts are always true, Fact is anything that can be proven. Similarly,a dictionary helps us to learn and improve our literature but it does not mean that learning or reading dictionary is same as learning literature.
