“I dabbled a little bit in acting in high school and then I forgot about it completely. And then at about twenty-five I went to a class. I don't think anybody in my family thought it was an intelligent choice. I don't think anybody thought I'd succeed, which is understandable. I think they were just happy that I was doing something.” ThinkingLittlesSchoolChoicesBitsActingClassSucceedLittle BitHigh SchoolMy FamilyIntelligent Author:James Gandolfini

“Indeed, being a beginner is very difficult right now. Book publishers are in a crisis, sales are dwindling, and publishing houses are losing money, doing their best to survive. It's a sign of the times, the emergence of new kinds of entertainment -- there's nothing we can do about it. I don't think books will perish for good. They could become less widespread, though, falling even further behind movies and computer games. But we shouldn't be afraid of this, because books will always remain the entertainment of choice for intelligent people, of whom there are still many in this world.” PeopleThinkingWorldKindStillsBookChoicesFallGamesHouseDifficultCan DoBehindsThis WorldRight NowComputerLosingIntelligentCrisisEntertainmentPublishingPublishersEmergenceBeginnersComputer GamesLosing MoneyPublishing House Author:Sergei Lukyanenko

“Highly intelligent and well-informed people disagree on every political issue. Therefore, intelligence and knowledge are useless for making decisions, because if any of that stuff helped, then all the smart people would have the same opinions. So use your "gut instinct" to make voting choices. That is exactly like being clueless, but with the added advantage that you'll feel as if your random vote preserved democracy.” PeopleIfsFeelsWellsUsePoliticalChoicesStuffDecisionOpinionDemocracyIssuesSmartAdvantageVoteIntelligentInstinctUselessGutsVotingDisagreeSmart PeopleMaking DecisionsCluelessPolitical IssuesGut InstinctHighly Intelligent Author:Scott Adams
