But I still read Shaw on a regular basis. What I love is the nakedness of the polemic and the irresistible good humour.

I earned my Ph.D. in philosophy, and one of my specializations was the logic and mathematics of game theory. I've also got a degree in drama, so I know about stories, characterizations, plot arcs, and the like. Lots of game designers can do one or the other: I've got the skills for both.

#Logic
I think time travel is really tricky. But if there's a logic and a complete and well-thought-through paradigm for it, I think it can be really interesting. Some of my favorite time-travel movies just make me think and, you know, the 'what if' question becomes a big one.
- Daniel Dae Kim

- Michael Nesmith
#Logic

#Logic
Drama starts where logic ends.
- Ram Charan
#Logic
The more I draw and write, the more I realise that accidents are a necessary part of any creative act, much more so than logic or wisdom.

The story is a machine for empathy. In contrast to logic or reason, a story is about emotion that gets staged over a sequence of dramatic moments, so you empathize with the characters without really thinking about it too much. It is a really powerful tool for imagining yourself in other people's situations.
- Ira Glass
#Logic
Logic and mathematics are nothing but specialised linguistic structures.
- Jean Piaget
#Logic
The cosmic game changed forever in 1992.

- Thomas Mallon
