I've nothing to say today, so I thought I would let this quote of Herbert Read say what I am thinking:
"In History, stagnant waters, whether they be the stagnant waters of
custom or those of despotism, harbor no life; life is dependent on the
ripples created by a few eccentric individuals. In homage to that life
and vitality, the community has to brave certain perils and must
countenance a measure of heresy. One must live dangerously if one wants
to live at all." - Herbert Read
