Quotes by Nassim Taleb  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“We like stories, we like to summarize, and we like to simplify, i.e., to reduce the dimensions of matters…the narrative fallacy is associated with our vulnerability to overinterpretation and our mental representation of the world… fallacy addresses our limited ability to look at sequences of facts without weaving an explanation into them, or…forcing a logical link…explanations bind facts together. They make them more easily remembered; they help them make more sense. Where this propensity can go wrong is when it increases our impression of understanding.”
Nassim Taleb

“The person you're most afraid to contradict is yourself.”
Nassim Taleb

“Too many academics are essentially lecturing birds on how to fly.”
Nassim Taleb
