Hans Magnus Enzensberger Quotes
I don't wish to defend everything that has been done in the name of Utopia. But I think many of the attacks misconceive its nature and function.

It is about inventing and imagining worlds for our contemplation and delight. It opens up our minds to the possibilities of the human condition.

If you put up a blog, people can cut out the middle man and get material to you. Which is really helpful because a lot of time there's really cool stuff out there that we just don't see.
