Вот то же самое от самого богатого математика планеты (по материалам моего старого поста <a href="https://smart-lab.ru/blog/394446.php">smart-lab.ru/blog/394446.php</a> ):<br/> <br/> <blockquote>«What about luck? In my opinion, luck is far and away the most important determinant in our lives. Various events of infinitesimal probability — where you are born, to whom you are born, who you marry, where you take your first job, which school you choose — have enormous impact on our lives. People tend to deny that luck is an important determinant. We like explanations. For instance, during a basketball game, there are innumerable random events. If a guy hits three in a row, he’s really hot. Most of the time, it’s random. Of course, the announcer doesn’t want to say, “Oh my God! Another random event!” That’s not exciting, so he’ll give a reason. But it’s just luck. Not all of our luck is good, but there is more good luck behind our performance than even I like to acknowledge.» James Simons, The Greenwich Roundtable, June 17, 1999</blockquote>"
