A Quote by Jay S. Walker

For most of human history, there was a ruling class and then there was everybody else. If you were part of everybody else, it wasn't your job to imagine a different future, different ways of doing things. So, imagination is a fairly modern phenomenon.

I've never tried to be accepted. When everyone is doing one thing, I've always had the instinct to go the other way.

How can you make history doing what everybody else is doing?

I am looking for different ways of doing that without having to spend days and weeks and months fooling around with pedals, which I don't enjoy.

Paul Simon

Everybody's like everybody else, and everybody's different from everybody else.
