--QUOTES FROM THIS VIDEO:

"Even the day of the election, the exit polls suggest to Trump was going to lose. "

"I think we believe that Trump was much more likely to get elected than the general population did. And this has to do with the theory of preference falsification, that people will broadly lie about what their true preferences are. "

"There's not only a huge wage gap. I think that there's also like a huge, maybe attention gap where on the video films, a lot of times I think they even cut the guy's head out of the frame, you know, so I think a lot of times the male is almost more objectified than the female."

--QUOTES FROM THIS VIDEO:

"American men, men in the developed world don't have any bonds that are comparable to the bonds that you're talking about. In other words, their closest friend is untested in any real way."

"Once I learned how to fight, I didn't fight anymore. Because I didn't have anything to prove anymore."

--QUOTES FROM THIS VIDEO:

"These people had flipped the script and said, "If you don't sign up for our racism, you're a racist.""

"My point is, the accusation is in and of itself so powerful in modern circumstances that the idea of standing up to it doesn't occur to most people."

--QUOTES FROM THIS VIDEO:

"You've got all of these institutions which have selected for economists who don't tell the truth, who've selected for sociologists who are friendly to the institutions and hostile to our people. What do we do?"

"So the way I see it, effectively what you have is a world of institutions and you have the wrong people in the institutions. In fact, what's happened is somehow that the institutions were built in an era where things were growing rapidly. The growth pattern changed a heck of a long time ago, almost 50 years ago. And so far what they've done is that these institutions have selected for people who can continue to tell stories about growth and to kind of play games to keep the illusion that everything is still humming along as if it was the fifties and sixties. But that hasn't been true for a long time. "

"In part I see you as part of a dying breed of people who are willing to go down with the ship for the privilege of commanding it as it's captain."

"I find that what's very disturbing to me is that the political economy of science means that fewer people are willing to make strong speculations, strong predictions, to explore things that don't give them the flexibility in case things that don't work out to say, well it could be like this, it could be like that."

"I believe that this person in some sense represented a failure of the visible worlds failure to close."

"In part what we're doing is we're turning a salacious story into a very dangerous national emergency if, in fact, Jeffrey Epstein was up to something very different than the mainstream story would have you believe."

--QUOTES FROM THIS VIDEO:

"Waves, in general, are like cannons or like guns. So when you're riding in the tube you can feel the air. It's a vortex and so it's sucking air in like a jet engine like, and then the wave, there's so much water moving, the air can't escape. So it goes the path of least resistance, which is back out the tube and it explodes, and shoots chunks of water that can knock you off your board."

"Well riding inside a tube, a barrel...basically the hollow part of the wave as it pitches over, it's unique because it's the only way we can breathe underwater without any other breathing apparatus."

--QUOTES FROM THIS VIDEO:

"We've got two different directives telling us to be both more confident and more humble."

"Why I think I'm so focused on theoretical physics as the most important endeavor that humans are engaged with...One is that this is the closest we get responsibly to asking why are we here? What is it that we're made of? It is the thing that would best substitute for religion if you were able to understand what it was. The second thing is, is that it appears to be the secret powering our economy that very few people have really fully understood."
