“There is no such thing as a status-quo person. We are just individuals with incredibly diverse thoughts and lives who lend bits of ourselves to the machine called the status quo. We lend our bits to keep the machine running, the machine that is the world economy, the cities and towns, the roads and the sewers and the hydro and the internet. But go into any portion of the machine and you meet people, lovely, lively, dynamic, amazing beings full of life and drama.”
