Robert M. Sapolsky
“Like so many other animals, we have an often-frantic need to conform, belong, and obey. Such conformity can be markedly maladaptive, as we forgo better solutions in the name of the foolishness of the crowd.”
Robert M. Sapolsky, Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst

Yuval Noah Harari
“One of the greatest fictions of all is to deny the complexity of the world and think in absolute terms:”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

Kai-Fu Lee
“AI ever allows us to truly understand ourselves, it will not be because these algorithms captured the mechanical essence of the human mind. It will be because they liberated us to forget about optimizations and to instead focus on what truly makes us human: loving and being loved.”
Kai-Fu Lee, AI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley, and the New World Order

Adam M. Grant
“Overall, on average, happier people earn more money, get higher performance ratings, make better decisions, negotiate sweeter deals, and contribute more to their organizations. Happiness alone accounts for about 10 percent of the variation between employees and job performance.”
Adam Grant, Give and Take: A Revolutionary Approach to Success

Frans de Waal
“Feelings happen when emotions bubble to the surface so that we become aware of them. When we are conscious of our emotions, we are able to express them in words and make others aware of them:”
Frans de Waal, Mama's Last Hug: Animal Emotions and What They Tell Us about Ourselves
