QUOTES

-Community / Dialogue -
There is more than a verbal tie between the words common, community, and communication.... Try the experiment of communicating, with fullness and accuracy, some experience to another, especially if it be somewhat complicated, and you will find your own attitude toward your experience changing.

-Economy-
The ultimate aim of production is not production of goods but the production of free human beings associated with one another on terms of equality.

Education
I believe that the community's duty to education is its paramount moral duty.
