Yuval Noah Harari
“In a world deluged by irrelevant information, clarity is power.”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

Yuval Noah Harari
“First, if you want reliable information, pay good money for it. If you get your news for free, you might well be the product.”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

Yuval Noah Harari
“When the faithful are asked whether God really exists, they often begin by talking about the enigmatic mysteries of the universe and the limits of human understanding. ‘Science cannot explain the Big Bang,’ they exclaim, ‘so that must be God’s doing.’ Yet like a magician fooling an audience by imperceptibly replacing one card with another, the faithful quickly replace the cosmic mystery with the worldly lawgiver. After giving the name of ‘God’ to the unknown secrets of the cosmos, they then use this to somehow condemn bikinis and divorces. ‘We do not understand the Big Bang – therefore you must cover your hair in public and vote against gay marriage.’ Not only is there no logical connection between the two, but they are in fact contradictory. The deeper the mysteries of the universe, the less likely it is that whatever is responsible for them gives a damn about female dress codes or human sexual behaviour.”

“Silence isn’t neutrality; it is supporting the status-quo.”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

Yuval Noah Harari
“So if you want to know the truth about the universe, about the meaning of life, and about your own identity, the best place to start is by observing suffering and exploring what it is.
The answer isn’t a story.”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century
