Quote by Kahneman, Daniel

“An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, published in 1748, the Scottish philosopher David Hume reduced the principles of association to three: resemblance, contiguity in time and place, and causality. Our concept of association has changed radically since Hume’s days, but his three principles still provide a good start.”

“In many life sciences, including psychology, discovery isn’t a black-and-white issue; it is matter of determining, from one experiment to the next, the theoretical contribution made by various shades of gray. When psychologists set arbitrary criteria (p<.05) on the precise shade of gray required to achieve publication—and hence career success—they also incentivize a host of conscious and unconscious strategies to cross that threshold. In the battle between science and storytelling, there is simply no competition: storytelling wins every time.”

“Anyone who expects you to justify a concern for your personal well-being, or shames you for making decisions that are in your best interest, is either deceiving and manipulating you, in an effort to preserve their own security, or they're operating on the basis of irrational ideals that they never bothered to consider, and are honestly unconscious of their hypocrisy; either way, the only person you owe anything to, is you.”
