No amount of observations of white swan can allow the inference that all swans are white, but the observation of a single black swan can refute that conclusion. – David Hume (1711-76)

Was reading “What the Dog Saw” by Malcolm Gladwell and came across this quote which I found pretty enlightening.

From my perspective, things are unpredictable, especially human nature. Its also similar in a certain sense to the quote on “What will go wrong will go wrong”. I guess I am the type that will prepare for the existence of the black swan than continue hoping that all swans remain white.

Cheers.
