'There's a lot of mathematics in music. It's all in groups of eight, mate, y'know. The one thing that I may have in common with John is that the subject matter I do know, the driving part of my life, my work life, there's a point where structure and scaffolding is left behind and intuition takes over. That's the difference between John and the next 100 mathematicians. He's fully prepared to leave the scaffolding behind and get into the ether of the equation and find the answer quicker. The bane of his existence, however, is finding the proof.'

Between two groups of people who want to make inconsistent kinds of worlds, I see no remedy but force.

There is no doubt in my mind that random groups of people thrown together in unstructured networks can outperform any aggregrated homogeneous corporation.

If you want to make a correct decision or solve a problem, large groups of people are smarter than a few experts.

Religious people split into three main groups when faced with science. I shall label them the 'know-nothings', the 'know-alls', and the 'no-contests'.

I guess cows aren't into the four food groups, especially when they are two of them.

Compare the verve and richness of Hong Kong with another largely Chinese community, Singapore, where the press is suppressed, opposition politicians harassed or driven into exile, where ideas don't flow, where theatre groups are closed down for satirising the authorities.
