  7. A quotation from Norman F. Dixon

    The values communicated by status-insecure parents are such that their children learn to put personal success and the acquisition of power above all else. They are taught to judge people for their usefulness rather than their likableness. Their friends, and even future marriage partners, are selected and used in the service of personal advancement; love and affection take second place to knowing the right people. They are taught to eschew weaknesses and passivity, to respect authority, and to despise those who have not made the socio-economic grade. Success is equated with social esteem and material advantage, rather than with more spiritual values.

    Norman F. Dixon (1922-2013) British cognitive psychologist, author, military engineer
    On the Psychology of Military Incompetence, Part 2, ch. 22 “Authoritarianism” (1976)

  8. "After receiving feedback, individuals who learn that they have ranked better than expected decrease their output but expect an even better rank in the future, while those who were told they ranked worse than expected increase their output and at the same time lower their rank expectations going forward. These effects are stronger in earlier rounds of the task, while subjects learn how they compare to their peers."

  11. A quotation from John Adams

    Essay (1790), “Discourses on Davila: A Series of Papers on Political History,” No. 4, Gazette of the United States
