It’s not about how many people transform; it’s about how deeply those of us do transform take the commitment to keep on going. The solutions begin in the vertical before they make it to the horizontal.

I can’t disagree with that. I don’t think it’s going to be easy. I think we’ve got a seriously difficult road ahead of us. But cynicism is just an excuse for not helping, and only if we love each other and try to understand each other will we be able to make it through.

All of us who are grownups. The older you are the more you know certain things, and the younger you are the more you know certain other things. Believe it or not we need each other.

At a certain point, all the adults alive at a certain point are referred to as “that generation.”

I don’t think any of us are feeling optimistic 24/7 right now, but I think it’s really important that we hold each other up and guide each other in that direction.

A generation shallower and more entitled than any generation in American history is now called upon to become deeper and more compassionate than any in American history. And in that odd, ironic way that history has of making strange and wondrous turns, I think we’re going to.

But nothing like this has happened before. We’ve never been shaken up like this in the past. I think that creates an opening… a possibility… we need to think that way, to declare it and to commit to it.
