I always see that the monthly Rationality Quotes thread has this line: "Do not quote comments/posts on LW/OB - if we do this, there should be a separate thread for it." This is the thread for those quotes.
This is a (possibly) monthly thread for posting any interesting rationality-related quotes you've seen on LW/OB.
Please post all quotes separately (so that they can be voted up/down separately) unless they are strongly related/ordered.
Do not quote yourself.
Do not post quotes that are NOT comments/posts on LW/OB - there is a separate thread for this.
No more than 5 quotes per person per monthly thread, please.
