Description: We won't call for the march of a million. But what if we organized the spraying of graffiti throughout the night, all over Krakow. The city will know. So, we pick tactics accommodated to the event, especially this thing we call the small tactics of dispersion.

Eugene Fama

The problem that people don't understand is that active managers, almost by definition, have to be poorly diversified. Otherwise, they're not really active. They have to make bets. What that means is there's a huge dispersion of outcomes that are totally consistent with just chance. There's no skill involved it. It's just good luck or bad luck.

American Economist

Mildred Dresselhaus

The concept of graphene came along in 1947, but nobody paid much attention to it. I was fascinated because it had a linear E versus K while everything else that people were working on at that time had a quadratic dispersion relationship. I wondered why this was and what was so special about it. That was my fascination.

American Scientist

Richard Edelman

We have seen an unprecedented dispersion of authority, such that 'a person like you' is now one of the most credible spokespersons on business, along with technical and academic experts.

American Businessman

Bryson DeChambeau

My job is just to be more consistent and if I can keep being more repeatable, have my dispersion be a little less as I'm hitting it farther, there's a lot of strokes to be gained there.

American Athlete

Lord George Gordon

David and his followers taught no new doctrines, in their dispersion or when they came to power, that can be brought to countenance thee at all in shaving off thy beard.

British Politician

George Stigler

Even before I came to Chicago, I had gotten interested in the existence of dispersion of prices under conditions which economic theory said would yield a single price.

Andre Aciman

I may write about place and displacement, but what I'm really writing about is dispersion, evasion, ambivalence: not so much a subject as a move in everything I write.

American Writer

Daniel J. Boorstin

Knowledge is not simply another commodity. On the contrary. Knowledge is never used up. It increases by diffusion and grows by dispersion.

American Historian

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Inequalities of wealth lead to a dispersion in wealth for all.

Lebanese Scientist

Focus on how 'dispersion' affects large areas, not just small spaces or groups.

Wide Area Impact

'Dispersion' can be either organized, like a team dispersing strategically, or chaotic.

Planned vs. Unplanned

'Dispersion' in physics is precise; it's about waves, like light or sound, bending or slowing down.

Physics Specific

Remember 'dispersion' in physics happens when moving from one medium to another, like air to water.

Medium Transition

'Dispersion' in statistics shows the spread of values; it's about how spread out data is.

Data Variation

In statistics, a higher 'dispersion' means more variability and differences among data points.

Variability Indicator

'Dispersion' often occurs in nature, like seeds spreading over a landscape.

Natural Processes

Humans cause 'dispersion' like when farmers spread seeds, or it happens naturally, like with the wind.

Humans and Nature

'Dispersion' involves people or animals moving apart in various directions, not just leaving.

Group Separation

'Dispersion' often occurs after events or gatherings, depicting the movement afterwards.

After Events

 We won't call for the march of a million. But what if we organized the spraying of graffiti throughout the night, all over Krakow. The city will know. So, we pick tactics accommodated to the event, especially this thing we call the small tactics of dispersion.

 The dispersion of factories fuels another problem as labor abuse. Most brands don’t own or operate their factories, so the plants they work with are in countries with little to no worker protection laws.
