    "Oh, he seems like an okay person, except for being a little strange. All day he sits at his desk and scribbles. Then, at the end of the day, he takes the sheets of paper he's scribbled on, scrunches them all up, and throws them in the trash can." - Von Neumann's housekeeperpic.twitter.com/ztnLWldt5C

        It tells you something about the power of writing. Without writing, you are reduced to a finite automaton. With writing you have the extraordinary power of a Turing machine 2/2
