your job is not to be perfect, but only to be human
and nothing in life that matters happens without a cost

tilly olson - oh yes
better immersion than to live untouched

the most important things we do and spend our time on are the things we cannot measure

monsters exist in all of us, but maybe it's not monsters but the broken parts of ourselves, sadness, shame
no group more vulnerable to those kinds of manipulations are young men
the most dangerous animal on the planet - the adolescent male

moral imagination

we have it all wrong when we think income is the link, what we yearn for is to be visible to each other

we need the audacity to believe - all men are created equal
and the humility to believe - we can't do it alone

our lives are so short, and our time on this planet is so precious, and all we have is each other.
