"A mesa dos mestres de navio era presidida por um velho capitão de longo curso, o sr. GertraisGaboureau. Não era homem, era um barômetro. Os hábitos do mar deram-lhe uma espantosa infalibilidade de prognóstico. Ele decretava o tempo que devia haver no dia seguinte; auscultava o vento; tomava o pulso à maré. Dizia à nuvem: mostrame a tua língua. A língua era o relâmpago." — Mar 04, 2024 08:26AM

“Thinking in bets starts with recognizing that there are exactly two things that determine how our lives turn out: the quality of our decisions and luck. Learning to recognize the difference between the two is what thinking in bets is all about.”
