Danh ngôn của Julian Baggini
The optimist underestimates how difficult it is to achieve real change, believing that anything is possible and it's possible now. Only by confronting head-on the reality that all progress is going to be obstructed by vested interests and corrupted by human venality can we create realistic programmes that actually have a chance of success.

Người lạc quan đánh giá thấp mức độ khó để đạt được sự thay đổi thực sự, tin rằng mọi thứ đều có thể xảy ra và bây giờ điều đó là có thể. Chỉ bằng cách đối mặt trực tiếp với thực tế rằng mọi tiến bộ sẽ bị cản trở bởi những lợi ích được đảm bảo và bị tha hóa bởi lòng tham của con người, chúng ta mới có thể tạo ra những chương trình thực tế có cơ hội thành công thực sự.

- Metaphorical tone deafness is when people are unable to discern what is of value in something. I think I'm tone deaf to poetry, for instance. Despite having studied it into a second year of university, most of it just leaves me cold.

- If you play against a Peyton Manning, that's a great quarterback, but I'd rather have that quarterback that stays still. You have a better chance of getting to him. The mobile quarterbacks, they do a lot of different stuff.
