Only the disenfranchised can party with abandon.

...we're told by TV and Reader's Digest that a crisis will trigger massive personal change--and that those big changes will make the pain worthwhile. But from what he could see, big change almost never happens. People simply feel lost. They have no idea what to say or do or feel or think. they become messes and tend to remain messes.

Time erases both the best and the worst of us.

When the world throws you too much information, the only way you can stay sane or survive is to look for pattern recognition. Amidst all the blurs, is there a constellation that emerges, is there a straight line that's emerging. I think as long as you keep your mind in the palce where you're actively looking for patterns, you may not be safe, but you're going to feel safe, I think.

Only the disenfranchised can party with abandon.

There are three things we cry for in life: things that are lost, things that are found, and things that are magnificent.

So much information lacks a good way to store it, especially when it's all digital; sometimes it requires old technology to go back and retrieve it.
