Took me only 30 seconds to get the puzzle completed until I hit word #4.

2 more quotes from this “noble” author.

“An expert is a person who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field.”

“The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.”

All models are wrong, but some are useful.

Guessed at the contraction, and that led within 2 minutes to all the rest except the word that repeats. Took 5 more minutes to get that. Just still don’t know what the “X” is in the author’s first name (never heard of him). I could guess but won’t know if I’m right.

oooooooooooh I like those quotes!
Started with the three words after the coma. Everything dropped perfectly, it was insane! After reading the entire quote, the fourth word became a no brainer. Took me a total of 45 secs.

Thanks!!!
