Nassim Nicholas Taleb
“If you hear a "prominent" economist using the word 'equilibrium,' or 'normal distribution,' do not argue with him; just ignore him, or try to put a rat down his shirt.”
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

Daniel Nayeri
“My mom just sighs and says, "It was a different time," and he was a young man, but nobody's convinced, not even her.

What else is there to say, though?

It happened. Welcome to earth.”
Daniel Nayeri, Everything Sad Is Untrue
