Scott Adams Quote

Every generation before us believed, like Snickers, that it had things figured out. We now know that every generation before us was wrong about a lot of it. Is it likely that you were born at the tipping point of history, in which humans know enough about reality to say we understand it? This is another case where humility is your friend.

About Scott Adams

Scott Raymond Adams (born June 8, 1957) is an American author and cartoonist. He is the creator of the Dilbert comic strip and the author of several nonfiction works of business, commentary, and satire. Adams worked in various corporate roles before he became a full-time cartoonist in 1995. While working at Pacific Bell in 1989, Adams created Dilbert. By the mid-1990s, the strip had gained national prominence in the United States and began to reach a worldwide audience. Dilbert remained popular throughout the following decades, spawning several books written by Adams.
Adams writes in a satirical way about the social and psychological landscape of white-collar workers in modern corporations. In addition, Adams has written books in various other areas, including the pandeistic spiritual novella God's Debris and books on political and management topics, including Loserthink.
In February 2023, Dilbert was dropped by numerous newspapers and its distributor, Andrews McMeel Syndication, after Adams called black Americans that disagreed with "It's okay to be white" a "hate group" and said white Americans should "get the hell away from" them. Adams later said this was a use of hyperbole. Adams then relaunched the strip as a webcomic on his locals.com website.
