“Chock them so ... full of "facts" they feel stuffed, but absolutely "brilliant" with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving.”

“It is the nature of stone to be satisfied. It is the nature of water to want to be somewhere else.”

“My leadership began to take flight when I allowed myself to press people to change-whether they thanked me or cursed me.”

“Die before you die, there is no chance after.”
