“With a little persuasion, any familiar thing can turn abnormal in the mind. Here's a thought experiment. Consider this brutal bit of magic. A human grows a second human in a space inside her belly; she grows a second heart and a second brain, second eyes and second limbs, a complete set of second body parts as if for use as spares, and then, after almost a year, she expels that second screaming being out of her belly and into the world, alive. Bizarre, isn't it?” IfsWorldYearsMindHumansHeartLittlesUseBodyEyeTurnsGrowsBitsSpaceBrainAliveMagicExperimentsFamiliarBrutalSparesPersuasionBizarreBellyLimbsAbnormalFamiliar Things Book:The Age of Miracles: A Novel Source: The Age of Miracles: A Novel
“Above all, think of life as a prototype. We can conduct experiments, make discoveries, and change our perspectives. We can look for opportunities to turn processes into projects that have tangible outcomes. We can learn how to take joy in the things we create whether they take the form of a fleeting experience or an heirloom that will last for generations.” ThinkingLooksLastsFormJoyTurnsOpportunityProcessCreativityGenerationsDesignPerspectiveProjectsDiscoveryExperimentsOutcomesFleetingTangiblePrototypeHeirlooms Author:Tim Brown
