"La condition humaine is the art of suffering, enjoying oneself and
dying."
-Ivan Illich
I read an article today in Ode magazine (for intelligent optimists) about Ivan Illich and his views that technology and development get in the way of having a truly free and egalitarian society.
My favorite part of the article addressed a plan he devised to have a bicycle alliance. Everyone rides a bicycle and the only cars allowed on the road are taxis.
