"The first beginning will feel wrong. We are not used to being with ourselves uninterrupted. We do not know the way first things look. We have imagined our creations finished but never begun. A thing begun is less right than wrong, more flaw than finesse, all problem and no solution. Nothing begins good, but everything good begins. Everything can be revised, erased, or rearranged later. The courage of creation is making bad beginnings." (Kevin Ashton, How to Fly a Horse)

A quote from David Graeber's book, The Democracy Project. “As the events of 2011 reveal, the age of revolutions is by no means over. The human imagination stubbornly refuses to die.
