I think what's always important is not to be contrarian for its own sake but to really get at the truth.

Contrarian thinking doesn't make any sense unless the world still has secrets left to give up.

The best opportunities are often ones where you're being contrarian. That doesn't mean being contrarian for contrarian's sake, but it means you're thoughtful about the risks of following the crowd.

I am not very introspective.

I am not overconfident.

To a contrarian like me, constant advice not to do something almost always starts me quickly down the risky, unpopular path.

You know that I'm always a proponent of doing things differently.

I am certainly not an intellectual relativist, nor a moral relativist.

My philosophy is familiarity breeds contempt.
