Edward Abbey
“One final paragraph of advice: do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am - a reluctant enthusiast....a part-time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it’s still here. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for a while and contemplate the precious stillness, the lovely, mysterious, and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and your head firmly attached to the body, the body active and alive, and I promise you this much; I promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies, over those desk-bound men and women with their hearts in a safe deposit box, and their eyes hypnotized by desk calculators. I promise you this; You will outlive the bastards.”
Edward Abbey

Alexis de Tocqueville
“I know of no country, indeed, where the love of money has taken a stronger hold on the affections of men.”
Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America

James Gleick
“When information is cheap, attention becomes expensive.”
James Gleick, The Information: A History, a Theory, a Flood

Dan  Norris
“Always favor a name that’s simple. Even if it doesn’t mean anything, being simple makes it memorable. Eventually it will mean something.”
Dan Norris, The 7 Day Startup: You Don't Learn Until You Launch

Edward Abbey
“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.”
Edward Abbey
