\vspace*{2 cm}

\noindent \emph{The explanatory stories that people find compelling are simple; are concrete rather
  than abstract; assign a larger role to talent, stupidity and intentions than to luck; and focus
  on a few striking events that happened rather than on the countless events that failed to
  happen.}

\noindent \emph{The ultimate test of an explanation is whether it would have made the event
  predictable in advance.}

\noindent \emph{Paradoxically, it is easier to construct a coherent story when you know little,
  when there are fewer pieces to fit into the puzzle. Our comforting conviction that the world
  makes sense rests on a secure foundation: our almost unlimited ability to ignore our ignorance.}

\hfill -- Daniel Kahneman \cite{KahnemanDaniel2013a}
