/ The modern corporate office, if it were \
| logistically perfect--that is, if its |
| architecture were such that employees |
| were always either moving in a |
| controlled manner or completely |
| isolated; if management could, in a |
| passive and unobtrusive way, monitor |
| every employee at all times; if every |
| employee's daily schedule followed a |
| perfectly rigid timetable--it would be |
| a prison. |
| |
| So would a perfect school. So would a |
| perfect hospital. |

/ The best opening sentence to a novel is \

| "The sky above the port was the color |

| channel." But to go into why it's the |
| best would be somewhat beside the |
| point, and may even ruin it for you. |
\ Just let it sink in. /

/ The other day I was walking down to the \

| guy sprinting along the platform, and |
| another guy chasing him, yelling "Stop |
| him! Stop him!" Then, seconds later, it |
| was like nothing happened. Nobody said |
