Reality is something that is really true. Reality is mind-independent, i.e. reality would continue to be the case whether or not anyone believed it, or indeed whether or not there were any minds to believe it in the first place.
- "That which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away." -- Philip K. Dick
Something is said to be "a fact" is, a concept, statement, thing, scientific law, or event that can been unequivocally (indisputably) proven to be true. Facts are always based on concrete verified evidence which substantiate their truth.
