“What is a committee? A group of the unwilling, picked from the unfit, to do the unnecessary”
― Richard Harkness
tags: humor

George Orwell
“According to Chesterton, tea-drinking’ is ‘pagan’, while beer-drinking is ‘Christian’, and coffee is ‘the puritan’s opium’.”
― George Orwell, The Road to Wigan Pier

George Gilder
“Even though bitcoin may not, after all, represent the potential for a new gold standard, its underlying technology will unbundle the roles of money. This can finally clarify and enable the necessary distinction between the medium of exchange and the measuring stick. Disaggregated will be all the GAFAM (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft conglomerates)—the clouds of concentrated computing and commerce.”
― George Gilder, Life After Google: The Fall of Big Data and the Rise of the Blockchain Economy

Ivan Turgenev
“If we wait for the moment when everything, absolutely everything is ready, we shall never begin.”
― Ivan Turgenev

Charles Darwin
“If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. But I can find no such case.”
― Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species
