“It’s very existence is too improbable for any one person to truly comprehend”
I, Pencil: The Movie
- The world we live in: we should be dumbstruck by its intricacy and brilliance
- Each part of the pencil is the result of the cooperation and collaboration of millions of people
- no mastermind or central authority dictating how a pencil is made
- all actions involved in process are voluntary
- by working to create, labor and skill is traded for things each individual desires
- free market: the spontaneous configuration of creative human energies
- everyone benefits from voluntary, spontaneous, cooperation
