The Best New Ideas Come From Old Books

We live in modern, cutting edge times. Each day, there are breakthroughs in neuroscience, microcomputing, medicine, and in how we make, save, and spend money. Our ability to beam information around the world, instantaneously, also means that we can get breaking news from all corners of the planet. Big data gives us the power to scrap enormous amounts of inputs and draw new insights from them. All this is wonderful and illuminating. We know things that we never thought we’d be able to know…and the person who doesn’t avail themselves of this is needlessly ignorant.

And yet…and yet.

As the great General Mattis said recently on Medal of Honor recipient Kyle Carpenter’s podcast:

My best new ideas come from very old books.
