The Diamond Age

Boken som den här gången får iLEZ seal of approval heter The Diamond Age och är skriven av *trumvirvel* Neal Stephenson. Citatet nedan är varken lösryckt eller pompöst. Det verkar bara så.

"The difference between ignorant and educated people is that the latter know more. But that has nothing to do with whether they are stupid or intelligent. The difference between stupid and intelligent people--and this is true whether or not they are well-educated--is that intelligent people can handle subtlety. They are not baffled by ambiguous or even contradictory situations--in fact, they expect them and are apt to become suspicioius when things seem overly straightforward."

- Neal Stephenson - The Diamond Age
