How can a free people make decisions without facts? If the press reports world news as they report about me, we’re in trouble

Jordan Peterson

Most people in prison are men. Most people who are on the street are men. Most victims of violent crimes are men. Most people who commit suicide are men. Most people who die in wars are men. People who do worse in school are men. Where’s the dominance here precisely?

I know you’re not supposed to make fun of fat people. I don’t know why though. They’re not a race, they’re not a religion. It’s totally curable. Eat an apple and go for a walk

I think that generally people have things that are more within their personal purview that are more difficult to deal with and that they’re avoiding. And that generally the way they avoid them is by adopting pseudo-moralistic stances on large scale social issues so that they look good to their friends and their neighbours

Most people have no idea what they’re capable of. No real sense of their talents or their abilities. And very many people therefor conclude that they don’t have any, there’s nothing special about them

However close we may be to someone because they’ve been nice to us, it is nothing next to the closeness we’ll achieve if we allow them to show us, without shaming or humiliating, what really isn’t quite so nice about them
