Famous Richard Heart Quotes

“People thought that what you ate was super important and then they realized that there’s micro world of amazing bacteria in people’s guts and that they’re mildly different. What might be a great diet for you isn’t for someone else, not only because they’re biologically different, but because of this other species of microbes that has nothing to do with their DNA, they have their own DNA.”

“If you picked your top 25 things and took off the bottom 20 and avoided them, because they might hurt the top 5, you would be using the negative space idea. The result is more work on the stuff you really care about. Depending on how far different your 1-25 really were, you might have a top 10 that were almost all the same thing, so there’s a little bit of accuracy of scope that is involved.”

“Don’t confuse personal excellence with “self-help.” Calling books on how to kick ass “self-help” is kind of stupid, because it’s quite often that the people that read these books are far beyond the needing of help than those that are smart enough to read this excellent and life changing material over all of the other options on the book shelves. Who came up with that dumb ass title? How is personal excellence in any way similar to “self-help”?”

“There appears to be many advertisements for diversity and quotas and report cards out there. Why are you classifying by race? Why don’t you classify by stupid? How many stupid people have you hired? Or how many rage-filled people? Or how many depressed people? Or how many people who always say the wrong thing? Why are you using race to select between people? Doesn’t that make you a racist? Isn’t there some more important categorization that you can use for humans? You’re better off dividing people by profession, or by their free time activities.”
