# Sayings – The Old World Needs New Thinking

			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				The world view of a ridiculous person expressed in platitudes and paradoxes:
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						1.
						Boost your success rate: gather predictions and do the opposite.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						2.
 Think NEW
Leave the old ways to the know-it-alls.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						3.
Beneath every bait lies a pitfall.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						4.
The worst consequences follow from inconsistency.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						5.
True happiness is found by those who do not need it.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						6.
Only the unsuccessful know the recipes for success.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						7.
 Are you wondering about your future?
Ask your past.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						8.
 Why are great personalities so modest?
Because they are great personalities!
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						9.
 Only by questioning things can you bring down facades!
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						10.
Your life is merely on loan.
You determine the rental fee yourself.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						11.
 Pay attention to what you didn’t really want to hear –
it might be important to you.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						12.
Avoid risks!
– uniformity will thank you for it
… without a doubt!
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						13.
 Judge a CEO’s ability by their capacity to make themselves redundant.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						14.
I’m pleased with myself, however misguided I may be –
after all (thank goodness), there’s only one of me.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						15.
 Don’t wait – go for it!
NOW … into the trap.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						16.
						Look out for attractive packaging;
the contents could be dangerous.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						17.
 Ask others what you need, because after all, it’s in their best interests.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						18.
 There are fewer connections than there are those that aren’t really connections at all.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						19.
 Compare something bad with something even worse, so as to fall for the bad thing.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						20.
						Experts are only as good as the advice that makes them dispensable.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						21.
 Believe in yourself only for as long as you can contradict yourself.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						22.
Where would the middle be if there were no extremes?
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						23.
The stumbling block of habit brings progress to a halt.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						24.
 Faith moves mountains –
and beneath them, the suffering of millennia is then revealed.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						25.
A crisis does not heal; it teaches – those capable of learning.
Those stuck in the past fall by the wayside.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						26.
						Concealing the downsides is the insidious art of successful selling.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						27.
 To profit from ignorance is fraud in its purest form.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						28.
						Something bad doesn’t become good just because many people go for it.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						29.
People with simple answers haven’t even understood the simplest questions.
					
				
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
					
					
						30.
						Anyone who champions democracy is no longer a democrat.
