<i>In Dijksterhuis 2004:<p>George Spencer Brown has famously said about Sir Isaac Newton that “to arrive at the simplest truth, as Newton knew and practiced, requires years of contemplation. Not activity. Not reasoning. Not calculating. Not busy behavior of any kind. Not reading. Not talking. Not making an effort. Not thinking. Simply bearing in mind what it is that one needs to know.”</i><p>– <i>The Black Swan</i> by Nassim Taleb<p>I purposefully don't listen to music when I walk places.
