Screwing things up is a virtue. Being correct is never the point. I have an almost fanatically correct assistant, and by the time she re-spells my words and corrects my punctuation, I can't read what I wrote. Being right can stop all the momentum of a very interesting idea.
Robert Rauschenberg
When you stop growing you start dying.
William S. Burroughs
Communication must become total and conscious before we can stop it.
William S. Burroughs
The shortcomings of America's political leaders do not stop at our borders.
