David Eagleman
“If our brains were simple enough to be understood, we wouldn’t be smart enough to understand them.”
David Eagleman, Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain

Robert M. Sapolsky
“Oxytocin, the luv hormone, makes us more prosocial to Us and worse to everyone else. That’s not generic prosociality. That’s ethnocentrism and xenophobia. In other words, the actions of these neuropeptides depend dramatically on context—who you are, your environment, and who that person is.”
Robert M. Sapolsky, Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst

David Eagleman
“So the first lesson about trusting your senses is: don’t. Just because you believe something to be true, just because you know it’s true, that doesn’t mean it is true.”
David Eagleman, Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain

Brené Brown
“It turns out that trust is in fact earned in the smallest of moments. It is earned not through heroic deeds, or even highly visible actions, but through paying attention, listening, and gestures of genuine care and connection.”
Brené Brown, Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts.

Hans Rosling
“human beings have a strong dramatic instinct toward binary thinking, a basic urge to divide things into two distinct groups, with nothing but an empty gap in between. We love to dichotomize. Good versus bad. Heroes versus villains. My country versus the rest. Dividing the world into two distinct sides is simple and intuitive, and also dramatic because it implies conflict, and we do it without thinking, all the time.”
Hans Rosling, Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think
