Malcolm Gladwell
“Anyone who has ever scanned the bookshelves of a new girlfriend or boyfriend- or peeked inside his or her medicine cabinet- understands this implicitly; you can learn as much - or more - from one glance at a private space as you can from hours of exposure to a public face.”
Malcolm Gladwell, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking

Malcolm Gladwell
“There can be as much value in the blink of an eye as in months of rational analysis.”
Malcolm Gladwell, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking

Malcolm Gladwell
“We live in a world that assumes that the quality of a decision is directly related to the time and effort that went into making it...We believe that we are always better off gathering as much information as possible an depending as much time as possible in deliberation. We really only trust conscious decision making. But there are moments, particularly in times of stress, when haste does not make waste, when our snap judgments and first impressions can offer a much better means of making sense of the world. The first task of Blink is to convince you of a simple fact: decisions made very quickly can be every bit as good as decisions made cautiously and deliberately.”
Malcolm Gladwell, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking

Daniel Kahneman
“A reliable way of making people believe in falsehoods is frequent repetition, because familiarity is not easily distinguished from truth.”
Daniel Kahneman, Thinking, Fast and Slow

Malcolm Gladwell
“When we become expert in something, our tastes grow more esoteric and complex.”
Malcolm Gladwell, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking
