Love requires that we overcome the traditional and self-defeating fears that place distance between ourselves and others.
The human need to play is a powerful one. When we ignore it, we feel there is something missing in our lives.
To place your ideas and your dreams before the crowd is to risk being called naive.
Things omitted are often more deadly than errors committed.
We all need each other.
