Võrdsusest

Kui sa hindad võrdust, miks sa siis nii rikas oled?

Kui sa ei hinda võrdsust, miks mitte või mis mõttes mitte?

Kui sa ei ole nii rikas, siis kes on nii rikas?

Oh seda maailma...

Jagamisest

Kui inimene endale kunagi vastu ei räägi, siis küllap sellepärast, et ta kunagi midagi ei ütle.

Demokraatia

Michio Kaku pahandab


Why democracy matters




"The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence."
Charles Bukowski kusagil kunagi

"The fundamental cause of trouble in the world today is that the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt."
Bertrand Russell, "Christian Ethics" from "Marriage and Morals" (1950)

„Inimese ilmajätmine hädavajalikust on suurem vabaduse piiramine kui see, et tal takistatakse kogumast ülearust“

What percentage of potentially knowable knowledge do we already know?


Dunningi–Krugeri efect

Johari aken


Donald Rumsfeld, 2002

"There are known knowns. There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we do not know we don't know."

Miks sa nii tegid?



Kas me peame teadma kõigest miks ja kuidas, et mitte ära eksida maailmade müstikas?

You see, one thing is, I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here, and what tche question might mean. I might think about it a little bit and if I can't figure it out, then I go on to something else, but I don't have to know an answer, I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is so far as I can tell. It doesn't frighten me.
