"...free dialogue may well be one of the most effective ways of investigating the crisis which faces society, and indeed the whole of human nature and consciousness today.

swim in the streams of our
conversation,
and do they matter most
when they're glimpsed through
deep water
and never caught?"
Richard Bach

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs
- ask yourself
what makes you come alive,
and then go do it.

is people who have come alive."
Howard Thurman

"What lies before us
and what lies behind us
are small matters
compared to what lies within us.
And when we bring
what is within us
out into the world,
miracles happen."
Henry David Thoreau
