Malcolm Gladwell Zitate

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ein Läufer muss nicht nur dünn sein, sondern insbesondere, um dünne Waden und Knöchel zu haben, denn jedes zusätzliche Pfund, das Sie an Ihren Extremitäten tragen, kostet mehr als ein Pfund, das Sie am Rumpf tragen. Deshalb kann das Abreiben von ein paar Unzen von Laufschuhen einen erheblichen Effekt haben.

Effective tidying involves only three essential actions. All you need to do is take the time to examine every item you own, decide whether or not you want to keep it, then choose where to put what you keep. Designate a place for each thing.

When it comes to consumer electronics, I'm a big fat sucker, because even though I know you should never, ever buy anything until the second version of it is released, I just can't resist. I live in a state of perpetual Beta.

I really think we should pass a law in every state, I don't care whether it takes the independence away from an old person or not. You shouldn't be driving a car if you're over the age of 80. Maybe even less than that.
