Nate Silver
“Absolutely nothing useful is realized when one person who holds that there is a 0 percent probability of something argues against another person who holds that the probability is 100 percent.”
Nate Silver, The Signal and the Noise: Why So Many Predictions Fail-but Some Don't

“Hence arises the belief that traditional culture, which is always based on particular connections, identities, and meanings, is intrinsically oppressive; that “essentialism,” the belief that things have a particular nature and significance, is ignorance and bigotry; and that “discrimination”, treating one connection as more fitting than another for any non-technological reason, is irrational and wrong.”
James Kalb, Against Inclusiveness: How the Diversity Regime is Flattening America and the West and What to Do About It

M.R. Graham
“Above all else, above the mechanics, even, a doctor should be thoroughly grounded in morality.”
M.R. Graham, In the Shadow of the Mountains

Bret Stephens
“No great power can treat foreign policy as a spectator sport and hope to remain a great power.”
Bret Stephens, America in Retreat: The New Isolationism and the Coming Global Disorder

Henry Kissinger
“A basic conflict is thus arising over Europe between the interests of Atlantic sea-power, which demand the preservation of vigorous and independent political life on the European peninsula, and the interests of the jealous Eurasian land power, which must always seek to extend itself to the west and will never find a place, short of the Atlantic Ocean, where it can from its own standpoint safely stop.”
Henry Kissinger, World Order
