“My point taken further is that True and False (hence what we call "belief") play a poor, secondary role in human decisions; it is the payoff from the True and the False that dominates-and it is almost always asymmetric, with one consequence much bigger than the other, i.e., harboring positive and negative asymmetries (fragile or antifragile).

“Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me proved, I never writ, nor no man ever loved.” IfsMenMindLooksStarsHoursLove IsTakenWeekLove YouFoolBearsLet MeMarkErrorsLipsEdgesWanderFixedHeightRemoveCheeksCompassDoomSonnetLove PoemsBarkTempestImpedimentsBendingAlterationsRosyWedding CeremonyWedding Poetry Author:William Shakespeare
