    when you don’t know things, the things you don’t know don’t exist.

    it’s cognitively easier to be dumb than it is to be smart.

    just like it’s easier to sit on a couch all day watching TV eating processed foods, than it is to run a marathon and cook healthy food.

    It’s not a matter of IQ, it’s a matter of money. Marathon runners are 80% college educated, and make 130K per year, and come from families that are college-educated and wealthy.

    Marathon runners don’t come from working-class poor rural families.
