"Caserta, Garofalo, Pluchino, Rapisarda e Spagano ci forniscono una intuizione molto importante: sebbene il caso abbia una brutta fama, in realtà è salutare e può essere più prezioso dell' oro, se si sa come sfruttarlo"
"Caserta, Garofalo, Pluchino, Rapisarda and Spagano are giving us a major insight: while randomness got a bad name, it is good for you, can be better than gold, if you know how to use it".
