This is my favorite part about analytics: Taking boring flat data and bringing it to life through visualization.

I know of no person or group that is taking nearly adequate advantage of the graphical potentialities of the computer.

The best thing about being a statistician is that you get to play in everyone's backyard.

Be approximately right rather than exactly wrong.

Far better an approximate answer to the right question, which is often vague, than the exact answer to the wrong question, which can always be made precise.

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of data.
