Daniel Kahneman
“We are far too willing to reject the belief that much of what we see in life is random.”
Daniel Kahneman, Thinking, Fast and Slow

David Hume
“But the life of a man is of no greater importance to the universe than that of an oyster.”
David Hume, On Suicide

Yuval Noah Harari

“Modern Westerners are taught to scoff at the idea of racial hierarchy. They are shocked by laws prohibiting blacks to live in white neighbourhoods, or to study in white schools, or to be treated in white hospitals. But the hierarchy of rich and poor – which mandates that rich people live in separate and more luxurious neighbourhoods, study in separate and more prestigious schools, and receive medical treatment in separate and better-equipped facilities – seems perfectly sensible to many Americans and Europeans. Yet it’s a proven fact that most rich people are rich for the simple reason that they were born into a rich family, while most poor people will remain poor throughout their lives simply because they were born into a poor family.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind
