You can never underestimate the stupidity of the general public. Technology: No Place for Wimps! Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. There are many methods for predicting the future. For example, you can read horoscopes, tea leaves, tarot cards, or crystal balls. Collectively, these methods are known as "nutty methods." Or you can put well-researched facts into sophisticated computer models, more commonly referred to as "a complete waste of time." Remember there's no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end. Nothing defines humans better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs. This is the principle behind lotteries, dating, and religion. |
