The greatest value of a picture is when it forces us to notice what we never expected to see.

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.

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

When communicating results to non-technical types there is nothing better than a clear visualization to make your point.

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.

Be approximately right rather than exactly wrong.

To be able to say that "if we change our point of view in the following way ... things are simpler" is always a gain.
