NOTABLE QUOTES
EDWARD LORENZ IN HIS 1972 SEMINAL PAPER:
“Predictability: Does the Flap of a Butterfly’s Wings in
Brazil Set Off A Tornado In Texas?”
“The concept exposes the notion that small, seemingly inconsequential events might certainly have large-scale consequences not limited to that seemingly small event; proposing in theory that we are all connected.”
OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN, II:
“It is a law of our civilization that as soon as a ‘person’ can contribute to the well-being of the world, there is created an immediate conspiracy to destroy his/her usefulness, a conspiracy in which (s)he is usually a willing collaborator. Sometimes (s)he awakens to the danger and does something about it.”
