Benjamin Graham
“In the short run, the market is a voting machine but in the long run, it is a weighing machine.”
Benjamin Graham

Yuval Noah Harari
“In the past, censorship worked by blocking the flow of information. In the twenty-first century, censorship works by flooding people with irrelevant information. [...] In ancient times having power meant having access to data. Today having power means knowing what to ignore.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow

Yuval Noah Harari
“We do not become satisfied by leading a peaceful and prosperous existence. Rather, we become satisfied when reality matches our expectations. The bad news is that as conditions improve, expectations balloon.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus: Breve historia del mañana

Arundhati Roy
“There's really no such thing as the 'voiceless'. There are only the deliberately silenced, or the preferably unheard.”
Arundhati Roy

Richard Dawkins
“Blind faith can justify anything.* If a man believes in a different god, or even if he uses a different ritual for worshipping the same god, blind faith can decree that he should die—on the cross, at the stake, skewered on a Crusader’s sword, shot in a Beirut street, or blown up in a bar in Belfast. Memes for blind faith have their own ruthless ways of propagating themselves. This is true of patriotic and political as well as religious blind faith.”
Richard Dawkins, The Selfish Gene
