The Two Things

According to a stranger that Glen Whitman met in a bar, there’s only Two Things you need to know about any subject, from which you can derive anything important about it that you need to know.

  • World Conquest: 1. Divide and Conquer 2. Never invade Russia in the winter.
  • Physics: 1. Energy is conserved 2. Photons (and everything else) behave like both waves and particles.
  • Women: 1. When complaining, they don’t want your advice, they want your sympathy 2. Don’t you dare tell them you can sum them up with just Two Things.
  • Binary Systems: One: 0 Two: 1

The two things you need to know to understand my mindset are:
1. Never do today what can be postponed until tomorrow.
2. Never do today what must be done today.
