“Imagine discovering a continent so vast that it may have no end to its dimensions. Imagine a new world with more resources than all our future greed might exhaust, more opportunities than there will ever be entrepreneurs enough to exploit, and a peculiar kind of real estate that expands with development. Imagine a place where trespassers leave no footprints, where goods can be stolen infinite number of times and yet remain in the possession of their original owners, where business you never heard of can own the history of your personal affairs.” WorldKindMayRealEndsEnoughMightOpportunityNumbersImagineHeardDevelopmentResourcesInfiniteOriginalsEntrepreneurGreedAffairPossessionDimensionsOwnersGoodsOur FuturePeculiarNew WorldDiscoveringContinentsEstatesStolenExploitsFootprint Author:John Perry Barlow
“We've introduced the New Apollo Energy Act, which is, I think, safe to say the most comprehensive and aggressive bill that has been introduced in Congress because it does have the scale, scope, and ambition of the original Apollo Project, and it attacks the problem in every way you can imagine. There's no silver bullet here, but there are lots of opportunities.” ThinkingWayDoeHas BeensProblemOpportunityEnergyImagineSafeAmbitionProjectsOriginalsBillsCongressScalesSilverAggressiveBulletsScopeApolloComprehensiveSilver Bullets Author:Jay Inslee
“Think about what you do from 9 to 5 each weekday. Now imagine you put that much effort into something you really believe in.

“In the original 'Star Wars' movie, there is a small toaster-sized and shaped robot on the Death Star that guides Stormtroopers to where they need to go.

“Gabriel Garcia Marquez is one of my all-time favorite writers. I feel spiritual when reading his words, even though they're translated.

“Rory: "People are being serious." Jazza: "There's a serial killer out there. Of course people are being serious." Rory: "Yeah, but what are the chances?" Jazza: "I bet all of the victims thought that." Rory: "But still, what are the chances?" Jazza: "Well, I imagine they are several million to one." Jerome: "Not that high. You're only dealing with a small part of London. And while there might be a million or more people in that area, the Ripper is probably focusing on women, because all of the original victims were women. So halve that--" Jazza: "You really need another hobby.” PeopleNeedsWellsStillsMightCoursesChanceMillionsImagineSeriousAreasOriginalsVictimYeahLondonKillersHobbiesSerialsSmall PartsSerial Killer Author:Maureen Johnson

“I came with the notion of perhaps saying something for monks and to monks of all religions because I am supposed to be a monk. ... My dear brothers, WE ARE ALREADY ONE.

“It is a matter of glimpsing that in God's new creation, of which Jesus's resurrection is the start, all that was good in the original creation is reaffirmed. All that has corrupted and defaced it--including many things which are woven so tightly in to the fabric of the world as we know it that we can't imagine being without them--will be done away. Learning to live as a Christian is learning to live as a renewed human being, anticipating the eventual new creation in and with a world which is still longing and groaning for that final redemption.” KnowsWorldHumansStillsMatterDoneChristianJesusHuman BeingsImagineCreationOriginalsLongingFinalsIncludingRedemptionResurrectionFabricWovenGroaning Author:N.
