The wise man listens to meaning; the fool only gets the noise. The modern Greek poet C.P. Cavafy wrote  a piece in 1915 after Philostratus' adage "For the gods perceive things in the future, ordinary people things in the present, but the wise perceive things about to happen." 
 
This is what I picked up when reading Fooled by Randomness by Nassim Nicholas Taleb..
 
Further it also talks about that we are living in the era of connectivity and the probability of success. It is mentioned that a 15% return with a 10% volatility (or uncertainity) per annum translates into a 93% probability of success in any given year. But seen at a narrow time scale, this translates into a mere 50.02% probability of success over any given second as shown below. Further observation over the very narrow time increment will reveal close to nothing.
 
Probability of success at different scales
 
Scale                                        Probability
--------------------------------------------------------
1 year                                       93%
1 quarter                                   77%
1 month                                    67%
1 day                                        54%
1 hour                                       51.3%
1 minute                                   50.17%
1 second                                   50.02%
