Nassim Taleb on maintaining quality

When you write books, when you do anything, you should never let the person have doubts about the quality of the product.  So if you're not sure about something, you say "I'm not sure, it's not my specialty."  Don't voice an opinion; you devalue yourself.  Or don't produce anything that devalues your product.
