forsythBlatantly stolen from Ken Macleod's blog (He's a science fiction writer, and a good one)
The two quotes are the ones he used to title his blog.
'Work as if you lived in the early days of a better nation.' - Alasdair Gray
"If these are the early days of a better nation, there must be hope, and a hope of peace is as good as any, and far better than a hollow hoarding greed or the dry lies of an aweless god." - Graydon Saunders
And yes, we can make a better nation. It's about time I started to get to work. Long past it, really, if I'd have been doing so, maybe we wouldn't be as doomed as we are now. And maybe not. Can't tell, but the future's waiting, and there's work to be done to make it one worth living in.
