萧伯纳说，
The Triumph of Stupidity： fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.
这个世界的悲剧是， 越傻的， 越是信心百倍， 越聪明的， 越充满了疑惑，
“Some people’s own incompetence somehow gives them a stupid sense that anything they do is first rate. They think it’s great.”
One of the painful things about our time is that those who feel certainty are stupid, and those with any imagination and understanding are filled with doubt and indecision.
Extreme views often stem from people feeling they understand complex topics better than they do.
But what exactly is stupidity? David Krakauer, the President of the Santa Fe Institute, told interviewer Steve Paulson, for Nautilus, stupidity is not simply the opposite of intelligence. “Stupidity is using a rule where adding more data doesn’t improve your chances of getting [a problem] right,” Krakauer said. “In fact, it makes it more likely you’ll get it wrong.” Intelligence, on the other hand, is using a rule that allows you to solve complex problems with simple, elegant solutions. “Stupidity is a very interesting class of phenomena in human history, and it has to do with rule systems that have made it harder for us to arrive at the truth,” he said. “It’s an interesting fact that, whilst there are numerous individuals who study intelligence—there are whole departments that are interested in it—if you were to ask yourself what’s the greatest problem facing the world today, I would say it would be stupidity. So we should have professors of stupidity—it would just be embarrassing to be called the stupid professor.”
