If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe.*
Carl Sagan

It’s unlikely anything we build is going to built from scratch. But with time and focus, we can find leverage to alter systems we care about.*
Seth Godin

“If I only had more resources, I could make something amazing,”
“I want to make/do something no one else has thought of” –
Possibility requires that we get imaginative with what we have got,
With what other have left for us, and
it’s likely that someone else had the same idea as you but didn’t bother
to begin – but you can.
