- Lawrence Lessig
The truth is, going against the internal stream of ignorance is way more rebellious than trying to start some sort of cultural revolution.
- Noah Levine
The way I see it, the nineteenth century was a British century. The twenthieth century is an American century. I predict that the twenty-first century will be a Chinese century. The pendulum of history will swing from the ying ashes brought by the Cultural Revolution to the yang pheonix arising from its wreckage.

I clink my glass against hers and we drink without toasting. The aged cognac tastes like history. Not the kind taught in schools, full of wars and politics and cultural revolution - the smaller, softer history of a world with only two people in it.

[Y]our agricultural revolution is not an event like the Trojan War, isolated in the distant past and without relevance to your lives today.

It's the foundation of your vast civilization today in exactly the same way that it was the foundation of the very first farming village.
