I'm with the spirit of Earth-Day-yet-to-come. Nobody can really predict the future, all you can do is look at trends, and that could change at any moment.

Margaret Atwood

I worked in fashion forecasting and I think that helps in being an editor because I love to know what's next, and I like to predict. I like to predict the trends going into the shows and normally I've organized all of our stories before we go. Fashion is my second language.

Glenda Bailey

Generally, if you look at present-day trends, you can predict the future. Very few people do that, because I've been told that only 3 to 5 percent of people are aware of being a part of history; the overwhelming majority think things will always be the way they are now. When Stalin was alive, most people could not imagine that he would ever die. Same under Brezhnev.

Vladimir Voinovich

If I could predict what my day would exactly look like, I would feel a little bit dead.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Economists did something even better than predict the crisis. We correctly predicted that we would not be able to predict it.

William Easterly

Azadeh Moaveni

If we as writers could predict what readers grab on to, we would write it.

Lois Lowry

You could never predict what would happen. There was an element of destiny in everything that one could never account for.

Danielle Steel

It's hard to predict what will happen with two brands in a market. Sometimes they will behave in a gentlemanly way, and sometimes they'll pound each other. I know of no way to predict whether they'll compete moderately or to the death. If you could figure it out, you could make a lot of money.

Charlie Munger

You can't predict what's gonna happen, you can't predict if people are going to participate, you can't predict if there'll be interference.

Pedro Pascal

It's not that we can predict bubbles - if we could, we would be rich. But we can certainly have a bubble warning system.

Richard Thaler

It would be wonderful if we could avoid the setbacks with timely exits, but nobody has figured out how to predict them.

Peter Lynch

When I helped to develop the open standards that computers use to communicate with one another across the Net, I hoped for but could not predict how it would blossom and how much human ingenuity it would unleash.

Vint Cerf

I hate to predict my future. I never really thought I would be a head coach at 34 years old. I never thought I would be traded to Tampa. I never even really thought I would be fired, even though I probably deserved it. I try not to predict things.

Jon Gruden

Until his dying days, Steve Jobs could not only predict the direction the marketplace would be heading, but help drive it there.

Kurt Eichenwald

We cannot even predict what kinds of emergent properties would appear when animals begin interacting as part of a brain-net. In theory, you could imagine that a combination of brains could provide solutions that individual brains cannot achieve by themselves.
