Nassim Nicholas Taleb Quotes
Minds Are In The Business Of Turning History Into Something Smooth And Linear, Which Makes Us Underestimate Randomness. But When We See It, We Fear It And Overreact. Because Of This Fear And Thirst For Order, Some Human Systems, By Disrupting The Invisible Or Not So Visible Logic Of Things, Tend To Be Exposed To Harm From Black Swans And Almost Never Get Any Benefit. You Get Pseudo-order When You Seek Order; You Only Get A Measure Of Order And Control When You Embrace Randomness.
