"The curious task of economics is to demonstrate to men how little they really know about what they imagine they can design." F.A. #Hayek

One thing that has surprised me about twitter is the way uplifting sanctimony (eg inspiring life quotes) & cynical political sarcasm are sandwiched together within a single account: maybe this is akin to self-management with uppers and downers.

Fun to hear Agnes Callard quoted during this morning’s sermon—followed by a great story about teaching empathy. (Sermon at 9:05, quotation and story at 14:30.) youtube.com/watch?v=CMSkUM…

Trying to balance the "ACCEPT YOURSELF" voice with the "IMPROVE YOURSELF" voice is a life's work.

Would be curious about what Agnes Callard thinks of this WSJ article about two philosophers who have greatly intrigued me. wsj.com/articles/two-p…
