• El coeficiente intelectual es una mercancía, los datos también. Me interesa mucho más ver a la gente interactuar en un restaurante con su smartphone. Todos podemos leer 'Tech Crunch', 'Ad Age'.

• It's too early for there to be any coffee. I stare dully at the empty pot in the common room, while Sam picks up a jar of instant grounds. "Don't," I warn him. He scoops up a heaping spoonful and, heedlessly, shovels it into his mouth. It crunches horribly. Then his eyes go wide. "Dry," he croaks. "Tongue...shriveling." I shake my head, picking up the jar. "It's dehydrated. You're supposed to add water. Good thing you're mostly made of water." He tries to say something. Brown powder dusts his shirt. "Also," I tell him, "that's decaf.

• In February, the overcast sky isn’t gloomy so much as neutral and vague. It’s a significant factor in the common experience of depression among the locals. The snow crunches under your boots and clings to your trousers, to the cuffs, and once you’re inside, the snow clings to you psyche, and eventually you have to go to the doctor. The past soaks into you in this weather because the present is missing almost entirely.

• I cannot go any further without mentioning my favourite biscuit of all time, now sadly, tragically, extinct. The oaty, crumbly, demerara notes of the long-forgotten Abbey Crunch will remain forever on my lips. I loved the biscuit as much as anything I have ever eaten, and often, in moments of solitude, I still think about its warm, buttery, sugary self.

• But then, Cap'n Crunch in a flake form would be suicidal madness; it would last about as long, when immersed in milk, as snowflakes sifting down into a deep fryer. No, the cereal engineers at General Mills had to find a shape that would minimize surface area, and, as some sort of compromise between the sphere that is dictated by Euclidean geometry and whatever sunken treasure related shapes that the cereal aestheticians were probably clamoring for, they came up with this hard-to-pin-down striated pillow formation.

• Las últimas décadas han pertenecido a un cierto tipo de personas con un cierto tipo de mente: programadores informáticos capaces de escribir códigos, abogados capaces de redactar contratos, MBA capaces de hacer números... Pero las llaves del reino están cambiando de manos. Pero las llaves del reino están cambiando de manos: el futuro pertenece a un tipo muy distinto de personas con un tipo muy diferente de mente: creadores y empáticos, reconocedores de patrones y creadores de sentido. Estas personas -artistas, inventores, diseñadores, narradores, cuidadores, consoladores, pensadores con visión de conjunto- cosecharán ahora las mayores recompensas de la sociedad y compartirán sus mayores alegrías.
