Roger Spitz
“Insights from data can be invaluable as feedback for decision-making, but should never be confused with being a proxy for the future, a predictor of the future, nor the future itself.”
― Roger Spitz, Disrupt With Impact: Achieve Business Success in an Unpredictable World

Daniel Kahneman
“The idea that the future is unpredictable is undermined every day by the ease with which the past is explained.”
― Daniel Kahneman, Thinking, Fast and Slow
