Ronald A. Fisher
“The supposed conflict between heredity and environment is quite superficial; the two are connected by double ties: first that the surest and probably the quickest way to improve environment is to secure a sound stock; and secondly that, for the eugenist, the best environment is that which effects the most rapid racial improvements. The ordinary social reformer sets out with a belief that no environement can be too good for humanity; it is without contradicting this, that the eugenist may add that man can never be too good for the environment.”
Ronald A. Fisher

Slavoj Žižek
“The fact that entangled particles can influence each other faster than the speed of light is taken as proof that there is a spiritual domain of instant communication outside material reality; the fact that a wave function collapses into reality through observation is interpreted as a proof that observation creates reality... no wonder many podcasts claim that quantum mechanics proves material reality is a simulacrum, that all there is, is spirit, etc.”
Slavoj Žižek, Quantum History: A New Materialist Philosophy

Nassim Nicholas Taleb
“The sucker’s trap is when you focus on what you know and what others don’t know, rather than the reverse.”
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms

Nassim Nicholas Taleb
“You can only convince people who think they can benefit from being convinced.”

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Men of profound thought appear to themselves in intercourse with others like comedians, for in order to be understood they must always simulate superficiality.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits
