2. “Prediction by analogy – creativity – is so pervasive we normally don’t notice it.” (Jeff Hawkins)
3. “Prediction is very difficult, especially if it’s about the future.” (Niels Bohr)
4. “The only relevant test of the validity of a hypothesis is comparison of prediction with experience.” (Milton Friedman)
5. “Economists give their predictions to a digit after the decimal point to show that they have a sense of humor.” (Anon)
