Ernst Jünger
“Today only the person who no longer believes in a happy ending, only he who has consciously renounced it, is able to live. A happy century does not exist; but there are moments of happiness, and there is freedom in the moment.”
Ernst Jünger, The Glass Bees

Nate Silver
“The signal is the truth. The noise is what distracts us from the truth.”
Nate Silver, The Signal and the Noise: Why So Many Predictions Fail—But Some Don't

Wernher von Braun
“One good test is worth a thousand expert opinions.”
Wernher Von Braun

Carl Sagan
“Occasionally, I get a letter from someone who is in “contact” with extraterrestrials. I am invited to “ask them anything.” And so over the years I’ve prepared a little list of questions. The extraterrestrials are very advanced, remember. So I ask things like, “Please provide a short proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem.” Or the Goldbach Conjecture. And then I have to explain what these are, because extraterrestrials will not call it Fermat’s Last Theorem. So I write out the simple equation with the exponents. I never get an answer. On the other hand, if I ask something like “Should we be good?” I almost always get an answer.”
Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark

Nate Silver
“The more interviews that an expert had done with the press, Tetlock found, the worse his predictions tended to be.”
Nate Silver, The Signal and the Noise: Why So Many Predictions Fail—But Some Don't
