“Thinking analytically is a skill like carpentry

or driving a car. It can be taught, it can be
learned, and it can improve with practice.
But like many other skills, such as riding a
bike, it is not learned by sitting in a
classroom and being told how to do it.
Analysts learn by doing.”
~Richard J. Heuer Jr.

for the Study of Intelligence", 1999, ISBN 1 929 667-00-0
