We must be careful not to believe things simply because we want them to be true. No one can fool you as easily as you can fool yourself.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

Life is too short to worry about stupid things. Have fun. Regret nothing, and don't let people bring you down. Study, think, create, and grow. Teach yourself and teach others.

Watch NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern pick apart this reporter's question during a joint press conference with Finnish PM Sanna Marin. He asked the pair 'are you two meeting because you're similar in age and got a lot of common stuff there?'

How a book written in 1910 could teach you calculus better than several books of today

[ASA History of Statistics Special Interest Group @HOS_ASA]

In 1993 BMJ asked Doug Altman🇬🇧to write a few 600-word “filler” pieces on statistics education. The result was BMJ’s *Statistics Notes* series, mostly co-authored with JM Bland🇬🇧. The 67 articles are called “perhaps the finest series of short articles on the use of statistics”

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life. Fall in love with some activity and do it! Nobody ever figures out what life is all about and it doesn't matter.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

The difference between a good student and a great one is that a good student is concerned more about the outcome while a great one is fascinated by the process of learning.

If anyone has a bike locked opposite the Kings Arms, come and get it quickly. They are taking them away for the half marathon.

@sdrelton Congratulations!

[Doris-Ann Williams @DorisAnnW]

Great opportunity for someone to lead the diagnostics group at MHRA as we move into an era of specific regulation for Great Britain! But be quick - applications close on 28 October!

@amibanerjee1 It was brilliant!

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

• Study hard.
• What others think of you is none of your business.
• It's OK not to have all the answers.
• Experiment, Fail, Learn and Repeat.
• Knowledge comes from experience.
• Imagination is important.
• Do what interests you the most.
• Stay curious

[Paul Dickman @pauldickman]

We are recruiting a full professor of biostatistics to join our team. Applications close May 3rd. We offer access to rich data and the opportunity to collaborate with world-leading scientists at a university that is investing in data-driven life science.
