Entrepreneurship is seen as if you’re in Silicon Valley or New York City and starting an app business or a social-media business, which is cool.

When AIDS hit, lots of people banded together to take care of each other and do what the government wasn’t doing. When you grow up Jewish, as I have, you learn that everybody hates you, no one’s going to help you, and you have to take care of yourself. That’s a great maxim to the gay community, and we took it to heart; we took care of our own (Community Quotes)

My mother actually left American in 1929 to be part of an alternative community of bohemians around her then father-in-law who was a well-known Greek poet. This group of people were living in this semi-Luddite reality and weaving their own clothes - proto-hippies in a way- -but around an artistic vision (Community Quotes)
If you spend a lot of time with activists, as I have, they’re just ordinary people who instead of Netflix are getting together in church basements and making posters or making phone calls doing organizing work. It really is about finding a community of other people (Community Quotes)

The single greatest issue for me as an environmentalist is climate change. I’d have to say that climate change is the single most important issue facing the environmental community and communities as a whole (Community Quotes)
The gang may be a safer place than home, but it’s not without its problems. In some instances, especially in the Latino community, the boys have very traditional views of femininity even though they are gang members. The girls can be [seen] as sexually available, but not the good girl that you want to take home to your family, even by young men in the gangs (Community Quotes)
As a community college professor for over twenty years, I’ve seen the determination, resilience and dedication of countless students. Regardless of circumstances, they show up. They work hard. They believe anything is possible (Community Quotes)
We have everywhere an absence of memory. Architects sometimes talk of building with context and continuity in mind, religious leaders call it tradition, social workers say it’s a sense of community, but it is memory we have banished from our cities. We have speed and power, but no place. Travel, but no destination. Convenience, but no ease (Community Quotes)
It hit me that being hip was a full-time job, and I was only a part-timer. I couldn’t hide forever that I liked county fairs, particularly the goat booth at the 4-H tent, or that I once spent a week with my grandmother at her house in the giant retirement community of Sun City, Arizona, and it was one of the most carefree times of my life (Community Quotes)
The earliest storytellers were magi, seers, bards, griots, shamans. They were, it would seem, old as time, and as terrifying to gaze upon as the mysteries with which they wrestled .. (they) helped the community live though one more darkness, with eyes wide open, and with hearts set alight (Community Quotes)
What private property does is connect effort to reward, creating an incentive for people to produce for more. Then, if there’s a free market, people will trade their surpluses to others for the things they lack. Mutual exchange for mutual benefit makes the community richer (Community Quotes)
The pieces that have survived, the ones that we all love, were not all popular in their time. Just look at Beethoven’s late string quartets. The music that the musical community selects, however, is usually the very best (Community Quotes)
I had a great time cheering for the team that I grew up idolizing and watching. The best part about the experience was the friendships I made and being part of an organization that is so involved with the community (Community Quotes)
Show me a chief executive who’s on five boards and who lends his or her name, prestige and time to 15 community activities - and I’ll show you a company that’s underperforming. A chief executive is paid to run the company. That’s the CEO’s job (Community Quotes)

We in the Jewish community are comparatively lucky. All of traditions have anti-gay pieces but the Jewish tradition doesn’t have as many anti-sexuality and anti-body teachings. It’s a lot easier to fit affirmation of sexuality and gender (Community Quotes)
The whole history between Haiti and the Dominican Republic is complicated. We share the island of Hispaniola, and Haiti occupied the Dominican Republic for twenty-two years after 1804 for fear that the French and Spanish would come back and reinstitute slavery.

What most interests me is human connection, whether it’s on the street, in community, through music, storytelling, and shared experience. People tell me to be a rock cellist, make money, and give up on the activism so I can make more money (Community Quotes)
I have a lot of intention behind what I put out there. The reason all this stuff I do works together, the environmental and social, collaborating with ballet companies to score a show, the bike tour - all of that stuff comes together through community building with music (Community Quotes)
The just response to this terrible event should be to go immediately to the world community, the United Nations. The rule of international law should be marshaled, but it’s probably too late because the United States has never done that; it’s always gone it alone (Community Quotes)
Besides, does it really matter who hacked Mrs. [Hillary] Clinton’s election campaign team database? Does it? What really matters is the content shown to the community. This is what the discussion should be held about (Community Quotes)
