A Google Alert pointed me to this page, which lists some of the saying that I am famous for. It seems like these have been assembled automatically from newspaper article quotes, because they, um, aren’t very profound. If they had pulled from people who quoted me on the web–like here–they might have ended up with something better. But if I were to add more representative examples:
“Narrower is better.”
“Um… what were we talking about?”
“Normal is boring. Try to be weirder.”
“Why?”
“If you are wondering whether to pursue a Ph.D., don’t.”
“Are you sure that’s what you mean to say?”
“Say it again, but make it make sense.”
Hm. Maybe I am not the best person to choose my own key quotes.
