“When I have drinks with someone on the left, nobody on the right bothers me." Who said this?

“When I have drinks w/ someone on the left, nobody on the right bothers me. When I have drinks w/ someone on the right, the left goes wild.”

Ok, now that I have your attention . . .

Nassim Nicholas Taleb is a genius on probability (philosophy), probability (mathematics), probability (logic), and probability (real life). Taleb predicted the 2008 financial crash. Taleb is among the world’s biggest real intellects (I say “real” because there are many pretenders).

I learned a ton from Taleb's big book Antifragile. The book is interestingly described by another reader Tamitake Itoh‏: “I read Antifragile by Taleb 4 times. First time, I read it as a text book to get wisdom to survive. Second time, as a memorial statement for Fat Tony. Third time, as Das Kapital of Marx with correct mathematics. Fourth time, as ethics to know the good way to die.”

Taleb’s motto: "If you see fraud and don't shout fraud, you are a fraud.”
