Paul Graham teaches you how to be a visionary instead of a sheep! "be less aware what conventional beliefs are". Knowing what other people believe is for shmucks! Especially when you're starting a company, when you're supposed to be... uhm... aware of these people's unmet needs..

"Fewer things in life feel more glorious than sliding your Motte into a new girl’s tight, luscious, unplundered Bailey [...] On the flipside, girls are unlikely to satisfy your “rationalist”-sphere and/or abstract philiosophical indulgences."

"Pinker is no intellectual historian, so perhaps it should not be surprising that he overlooks a key Enlightenment debate ... over the power, foundation, and limits of rational inquiry, perhaps the core example of Enlightenment self-directed skepticism."
