"The game has luck, no doubt about it. It is up to
the individual player to figure out how best to minimize the bad and
maximize the good. Failing that, one can always blame their
shortcomings on having a fuller, more interesting life than those who

"It's one thing to know how to play like an expert and

"Usually, when one tries to understand something very complex, there is a
first phase when one learns a lot, has no idea of the vastness of the

— Luca Trevisan, eminent computer scientist (Oct 2008).
