Nerdiness Quotes

Charm is the ability to insult people without offending them; nerdiness the reverse. (Nassim Nicholas Taleb)
I have respect for mother nature's methods of robustness (billions of years allow most of what is fragile to break); classical thought is more robust (in its respect for the unknown, the epistemic humility) than the modern post-Enlightenment naïve pseudoscientific autism. Thus my classical values make me advocate the triplet of erudition, elegance, and courage; against modernity's phoniness, nerdiness and philistinism. View quote
