• La disensión política es, sin duda, un mal menor que el letargo del despotismo; pero aun así es un gran mal, y sería tan digno de los esfuerzos del patriota como del filósofo, excluir su influencia, si fuera posible, de la vida social. Los buenos son bastante raros en el mejor de los casos. No hay razón para subdividirlos por líneas artificiales. Pero puede dudarse de que alguna vez seamos capaces de perfeccionar los principios de la sociedad hasta el punto de que las opiniones políticas sean tan inofensivas como las filosóficas, las mecánicas o cualesquiera otras.

• If you are reading this, and feel discouraged by an inability to communicate to others your own feelings about the importance of an active space development effort, comfort yourself with this thought. If you want to be on the leading edge of anything, you have by definition to be a couple of standard deviations away from most people. That makes you an odd-ball. The trick is to learn to accept it, then to like it-and keep on making lots of noise for what you believe in.
