As a matter of fact , it is true . | The fact is that he slept late that morning . | The fact that they are talking at all . As a matter of fact , he's going to the states . The fact is that he is my close friend . In fact , he loves her . In fact , I was there . The fact is I didn't go to school today . As a matter of fact , I dislike him . As a matter of fact , I know nothing about it . In fact , she's quite unreliable . As it is , I am awake . In fact , you are quite right . |
