Kevin Kelly: Why pencils? - extracted from Pencil Revolution 10/11/2005


Kevin Kelly famously writes about his favorite pencil, the Derwent 3B:

"A pencil can generate megabytes of text, needs no batteries, and has no user manual. It is comfortable to hold, it smells good, and it is relaxing to turn around in your hand as you try to think of the right words. Pencils don't need ink; all they need is a sharpener. They are warm and friendly; they have souls."

Well said!
