Talagrand's "work illustrates the idea that the interplay of many random events can, counter-intuitively, lead to outcomes that are more predictable, and gives estimates for the extent to which the uncertainty is reigned in."

"Majorizing measures provide bounds for the supremum of stochastic processes. They represent the most general possible form of the chaining argument".
