The trouble is that bare facts do not exist in a state of nature, for they are never really quite bare; the white trace of the wristwatch, the curled piece of sticking plaster on a bruised heel, these cannot be discarded by the most ardent nudist. A mere string of figures will disclose the identity of the stringer as neatly as tame ciphers yielded their treasure to Poe.‎The crudest curriculum vitae crows and flaps its wings in a style peculiar to the undersigner. I doubt whether you can even give your telephone number without giving something of yourself.
V. Nabokov "Nikolai Gogol"
The trouble is that bare facts do not exist because they are never completely naked, white mark on the watch bracelet, wrapped a piece of plaster knocked on the heel - they can not absolve themselves of the most fanatical nudist. Simple column of numbers will reveal the identity of who they add to, as accurately as malleable cipher gave the location of the treasure of Edgar Allan Poe. Most primitive curriculum vitae crows and flaps its wings as it is peculiar only to sign it. I doubt that you could call your telephone number without informing at the same time about himself.
