Bad people will often tell you they are bad, pretty explicitly, you aren’t clever for seeing nuance. “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” -Maya Angelou
On persistence over intelligence: “It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.”
— Albert Einstein
On favoring complex approaches that best show off intelligence: “In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s there are few.” — Shunryu Suzuki
“It is remarkable how much long-term advantage people like us have gotten by trying to be consistently not stupid, instead of trying to be very intelligent.” — Charlie Munger
