Rules to live by (or not)

A comparison of the rules for living of writer Nassim Nicholas Taleb and Republican political operative Roger Stone.

Taleb: “6. Learn to fail with pride โ€” and do so fast and cleanly. Maximise trial and error โ€” by mastering the error part.”

Stone: “Admit nothing, deny everything, launch counterattack.”
