So let the rest of the bastards suffer.</p> <p>Exactly why society doesn’t seem as upset (enraged) as expected. Those in that upper 1% (economically elite with privileged access) protect the status quo, of course, but the other 90% (although marginalized and disenfranchised) would actually just as soon keep the status quo thinking that it is possible to become the elite. Hey, what’s a little suffering along the way.

Don’t. Instead, spread them. Build a reputation as someone who creates great ideas, sometimes on demand. Or as someone who can manipulate or build on your ideas better than a copycat can. Or use your ideas to earn a permission asset so you can build a relationship with people who are interested. Focus on being the best tailor with the sharpest scissors, not the litigant who sues any tailor who deigns to use a pair of scissors.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2009/12/how-to-protect-your-ideas-in-the-digital-age.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+typepad%2Fsethsmainblog+%28Seth%27s+Blog%29&utm_content=Google+Reader">Seth Godin</a> (via <a href="http://azspot.net/">azspot</a>) (via <a href="http://notational.tumblr.com/">notational</a>)</em>http://bettyann.tumblr.com/post/278575299http://bettyann.tumblr.com/post/278575299Fri, 11 Dec 2009 00:46:07 -0500“<p>“Every human being is an artist, a free being, called to participate in transforming and re-shaping the conditions, thinking, and structures that shape and inform our lives.” </p> <p>Joseph Beuys (via esqueleto)</p>”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://notational.tumblr.com/post/274962452/every-human-being-is-an-artist-a-free-being">Notational (Every human being is an artist, a free being,…)</a></em>http://bettyann.tumblr.com/post/278568002http://bettyann.tumblr.com/post/278568002Fri, 11 Dec 2009 00:39:19 -0500“Humans are not made to sit at computer terminals or travel by aeroplane; destiny intended something different for us. For too long now we have been estranged from the essential, which is the nomadic life: traveling on foot. A distinction must be made between hiking and traveling on foot. In today’s society—though it would be ridiculous to advocate traveling on foot for everyone to every possible destination—I personally would rather do the existentially essential things in my life on foot. When you come on foot, you come with a different intensity.”<br/><br/> - <em><p>Werner Herzog, from <i>Herzog on Herzog,</i></p> <p>(via <a href="http://petitchou.tumblr.com/">petitchou</a>)</p> <p>(via <a href="http://www.petersantiago.org/">petersantiago</a>)</p> <p>(via <a href="http://alexandrabarao.tumblr.com/">alexandrabarao</a>)</p> <p>(via <a href="http://notational.tumblr.com/">notational</a>)</p></em>http://bettyann.tumblr.com/post/278564563http://bettyann.tumblr.com/post/278564563Fri, 11 Dec 2009 00:36:00 -0500<img src="http://6.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kugzcnTND21qzgtano1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Pepperstien’s series Landscapes of Future he portrays witty, bizarre, yet aesthetically inspiring visions of the distant future in pen and watercolour.
