It is hard to learn when we think we know something.

The essential challenge is to transform the isolation and self-interest within our communities into connectedness and caring for the whole.

We get the leaders we create.

We have banished our artists to the fringe of society and tell them to eat cake. It is our artists who choose freedom over safety and use their talents to question and confront the culture.

Advice is unfriendly to learning, especially when it is sought. Most of the time when people seek advice, they just want to be heard. Advice at best stops the conversation, definitely inhibits learning, and at worst claims dominance.

Ones vision is not a road map but a compass.

As long as we wish for safety, we will have difficulty pursuing what matters.
