Quotes

  • It's those who lie outside ordinary experience who have the most to teach us.
  • If you make a great number of predictions, the ones that were wrong will soon be forgotten, and the ones that turn out to be true will make you famous.
  • What do we tell our children? Haste makes waste. Look before you leap. Stop and think. Don't judge a book by its cover. We believe that we are always better off gathering as much information as possible and spending as much time as possible in deliberation.
  • The most influential thinker, in my life, has been the psychologist . He basically gave me my view of the world.
