For a very long time, the Pareto law [the 80/20 Principle] has
lumbered the economic scene like an erratic block on the landscape:
an empirical law which nobody can explain.
Josef Steindl
God plays dice with the Universe. But they’re loaded dice. And the
main objective is to find out by what rules they were loaded and how
we can use them for our own ends.
Joseph Ford
We cannot be certain to what height the human species may aspire. . .
We may therefore safely acquiesce in the pleasing conclusion that
every age of the world has increased, and still increases, the real
wealth, the happiness, the knowledge, and perhaps the virtue, of the
human race.
Edward Gibbon
