Jared Diamond
“All human societies contain inventive people. It’s just that some environments provide more starting materials, and more favorable conditions for utilizing inventions, than do other environments.”
Jared Diamond, Guns, Germs, and Steel

“In our age of connection, every one of us is a node. We sit on that tense, stretched surface between center and periphery. When we say Connection changes the nature of an object, this is the exact balance we have to contemplate.”
Joshua Cooper Ramo, The Seventh Sense: Power, Fortune, and Survival in the Age of Networks

Robert M. Sapolsky
“You don’t have to choose between being scientific and being compassionate.”
Robert M. Sapolsky, Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst

Tara Westover
“The decisions I made after that moment were not the ones she would have made. They were the choices of a changed person, a new self.
You could call this selfhood many things. Transformation. Metamorphosis. Falsity. Betrayal.
I call it an education”
Tara Westover, Educated

“In connected systems, power is defined by both profound concentration and by massive distribution.”
Joshua Cooper Ramo, The Seventh Sense: Power, Fortune, and Survival in the Age of Networks
