- Gertrude Stein

About this Quote

This quote by Gertrude Stein recommends that in the modern-day age, people are putting a lot of value on information and numbers, with counting becoming nearly like a faith. However, this reliance on data isn't always a bad thing, as it is seen as the "hope and salvation" of our time. This might be due to the role that data plays in helping us make informed choices, fix complex problems, and drive progress. It's a pointer that while we shouldn't blindly trust numbers, we likewise shouldn't dismiss their worth or the value of precise record-keeping and analysis.
