    But that's not to say the place is perfect. It's got good folk and bad folk, like everywhere else. And the only reason the bad folk don't get the upper hand is because the good folk don't let them. They see a weed, they pluck it out. They don't let it grow and seed and spread itself further til all the flowers are choked and dead.

The Riven Kingdom, by Karen Miller

It's the same spirit as one of my favorite essays, Patton Oswalt's The Good Outnumber You.
