"Academicians get nowhere." — Marilyn Ferguson

Evolution happens in jumps, very rapidly.

If you start thinking of stress as not a bad thing but inevitable, resulting in change that itself leads to transformation that leads to sharp and radical changes... it can be a very useful way of thinking.

We are constantly nothing but a bunch of energy being processed. Into this whirlpool, the more complex the system, the more energy it requires to hold it together. Therefore, the more complex - the scientists call it 'coherent' - the more fluctuations are possible.

We appear to have form, but we are like a whirlpool. We appear to have form, but we are just whirling electrons.
