  8. When cybernated and automatic machinery can reduce toil to the near vanishing point, nothing is more meaningless to young people than a lifetime of toil. When modern industry can provide abundance for all, nothing is more vicious to poor people than a lifetime of poverty. When all the resources exist to promote social equality, nothing is more criminal to ethnic minorities, women and homosexuals than subjugation.
    -- Murray Bookchin (Post-Scarcity Anarchism)

  11. Do not let the bread of the hungry mildew in your larder! Do not let moths eat the poor man's cloak. Do not store the shoes of the barefoot. Do not hoard the money of the needy. Things you possess in too great abundance belong to the poor and not to you. You are the thief who steals from God if you are able to help your neighbor and refuse to do it.
    -- Christine de Pizan (1364-1430 CE)

  17. Earlier generations of machines decreased the complexity of tasks. In contrast, information technologies can increase the intellectual content of work at all levels. Work comes to depend on an ability to understand, respond to, manage, and create value from information.

  22. While hiking in New Mexico a while back, I saw these Native American pictographs. Staring at them and reflecting was mesmerizing.

    Fun fact: people colloquially use “petroglyphs” to describe paintings on rock walls. But that specifically refers to etchings, not paintings. “Pictographs” is the term for the latter.

  23. Freedom is a balancing act that requires knowing when to relinquish authority.... Too much control prevents us from seeing possibilities beyond our immediate desires. Too much order stifles the healthy chaos, the restlessness, of a truly open mind.
