"Magic happens when at least one person—a writer, a photographer, or an editor—has been allowed to fall in love" 

Nathan Heller, writing about magazines but really any creative or curiosity driven thing

Most things happen because it is downstream from someone somewhere falling in love

creating and destroying; flying cars, roc.camera, july.rocks

Or hate - because people hate. But hate is just another form of love / attachment.

Strong feelings -> more drive -> making shit happen
