The Monday Morning Memo

“If you are going to succeed in this real world, you cannot act on assumptions. Assumptions disappear. You cannot act on the predicted fulfillment of some causal chain. The path coefficients that would fulfill that prediction are subject to too many random variations and mutations.”

“Just as cause has come unhinged from effect, experience has come unhinged from outcome. If you are going to succeed in chaos, you must connect with the chaos. You must act in concert with chaos.”

“What does that mean? It means that you must trust in intuition, trust in self.”

– Watts Wacker, The 500 Year Delta

Random Quote:

“Mendele! Your trade of books is fitting for you. Make a pledge, sell your wife's little jewelry and buy a cart, pack it with books and go out into the world. Whether you earn money or not, it's all the same, the point is to travel around, lay out like a king on the wagon to look around at each little shred of G-d's stunning beautiful work and his creations, in hills and valleys, in fields and forests. This horse will carry you slowly, slowly, and you will look and look. On the way, and coming to towns and cities, you will see many different kinds of Jews, beautiful things, strange mean things, all kinds of souls, twisted backs, haughty noses, long hands, shrew fingers, different faces of old and new varieties. You will get them to tell stories, to sing and to talk. Go! I thought to myself, alright, let it be so.”

- from Mendele the Book Peddler (1878,) by Sholem Yankev Abramovich
