Ep. 5: David Wolpe
00:21:26, David Wolpe : The word revolution has both meanings. It means to change everything. It also means to come around again in a circle. And what purists almost always discover is that human structures are much harder to overhaul than they suspected at the beginning. And also, I thought of a there's a beautiful quote from William Stafford, who's a poet about about this danger, he said, If you purify the pond The water lilies die. And I always thought there are, you know, this was Burke's insight there are human institutions grow for lots of reasons and nobody has a comprehensive enough intellect to understand if you radically change them with all the implications of that change will be. So you have to change carefully. Not and without, without contempt for everything that has come before you.
