"There's another role that chance plays in our life that is equally random, but is much more predictable. And it also can teach us something sometimes." - Dr. Bapu Jena
"We spend so much time thinking about all the data that we can collect without thinking to ourselves, what are the most interesting applications we can make of the data before we gather it?" - Dr. Bapu Jena
"I think we have plenty of data. And we had plenty of data a few years ago. I think what we're lacking in a lot of respect isn't big data, big questions." - Dr. Bapu Jena
"If you actually want the kind of transformation that allows you to do things with less effort, more ease, more enjoyment, like it's a real part of you. That's why willpower matters." - Dr. Bapu Jena
