Quote of the Day Subscribe to receive a random quotation each day

Quotations are extremely effective at capturing and concisely communicating thoughts and ideas. They can be inspirational, but more importantly, quotes can help us reveal and assess the assumptions, values, and beliefs that underlie how we perceive the world.

I have compiled over 200 quotations and short excerpts that form part of this blook. And I am slowly transferring 500 or so more quotes from my old website.

Most of the quotations relate to Conversational Leadership, but it’s an eclectic mix.

Random Quotation

Science is more than a body of knowledge; it is a way of thinking.

I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time — when the United States is a service and information economy;

when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries;

when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues;

when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority;

when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness.
