Success comes from good judgement.
Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement. A wise man does not play leap-frog with a unicorn. Youth and skill are no match for experience and treachery. The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
