“There were lot of fools at the conference – pompous fools – and pompous fools drive me up the wall. Ordinary fools are alright; you can talk to them and try to help them out. But pompous fools – guys who are fools and covering it all over and impressing people as to how wonderful they are with all this hocus pocus – THAT, I CANNOT STAND! An ordinary fool isn’t a faker; an honest fool is alright. But a dishonest fool is terrible!”

― Richard P. Feynman

"When I explained to them how I won it, they scolded me as if they had better understanding on random events, chaotic systems and probability theory. They are all pomppous fools. That is my only conclusion."

-- Exwai S. Asker
