“I like to think of ideas as potential energy. They’re really wonderful, but nothing will happen until we risk putting them into action.

“. . . Never be limited by other people’s limited imaginations.  If you adopt their attitudes, then the possibility won’t exist because you’ll have already shut it out.  . . . You can hear other people’s wisdom, but you’ve got to re-evaluate the world for yourself.”

“. . . Everyone should benefit from the bounty of this planet and its resources, not just those already well positioned.  Solutions, technologies, and systems are more sustainable and beneficial when they are built drawing upon the full range of human perspective, skills, experiences, and talents.”
