Revelation of the Day

As Paula Poundstone once said, knowledge isn't power. It keeps you awake at night knowing how much wrong and suffering and bad stuff is out there, and it makes you feel powerless. And the more you know, the more you realize you don't know.

Ignorance is bliss. But that doesn't make it right.

Apathy sucks. So does Angst Without Action.

No, Knowlege isn't Power. . . but:

Knowlege + Getting Off Your Ass And Doing Something = Power

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world."
