A greater national focus on the criticality of educational equity is needed in order to mobilize the masses and invite everyone to be a part of the solution.

If you say to people that they, as a matter of fact, can’t protect their conversations, in particular their political conversations, I think you take a long step toward making a transition from a free society to a totalitarian society Picture Quote #1

I strike up conversations all the time and it is very interesting, finding out about things I know nothing about Picture Quote #1

I have very intense conversations with friends, people I really interconnect with. We talk about politics, important things. I like to talk about ideas and get people to be specific Picture Quote #1

I don’t think if you asked any of my childhood friends they would say that I had a weird childhood; they might say there weren’t a lot of regular rules, the conversations in the house were always very open, dreams were a great thing to talk about, everybody was making something all the time Picture Quote #1

That’s what you want art to do, to open people up and start conversations Picture Quote #1

I write because I want to end my loneliness. Books make people less alone. That, before and after everything else, is what books do. They show us that conversations are possible across distances Picture Quote #1

Art to me is not precious enough that I feel territorial about what the word gets applied to. Conversations about what counts as art and what doesn’t doesn’t captivate my attention very much Picture Quote #1

It’s always a fun collaboration with my brother. I’m very fortunate to be able to work with him. There’s an honesty to collaboration. There’s a lack of a gender or ego in our conversations. And so you can really throw anything around Picture Quote #1

There are some conversations that are undeniably improved when the rule going in is that you have to stand behind what you say and have to wear a name tag when you do it. But that’s certainly not all conversations. People might be prepared to ethically stand behind what they say, but might be in a position that they can’t afford to lose their house over it. Speech shouldn’t just be for people with lawyers Picture Quote #1

Requesting a change of environment was an extremely difficult decision. After a tremendous amount of reflection and numerous conversations with my family, it made the most sense to seek a change Picture Quote #1

Journeys are the midwives of thought. Few places are more conducive to internal conversations than a moving plane, ship or train. There is an almost quaint correlation between what is in front of our eyes and the thoughts we are able to have in our heads: large thoughts at times requiring large views, new thoughts new places. Introspective reflections which are liable to stall are helped along by the flow of the landscape. The mind may be reluctant to think properly when thinking is all it is supposed to do Picture Quote #1

And I certainly like being on a plane, next to a stranger, having conversations that you’d never otherwise have. You’re unplugged, your phone doesn’t work, you’re not online Picture Quote #1

I’m all for lifestyle evangelism, but I’m also in favor of intentionality, where we seek out opportunities for spiritual conversations and are equipped to explain the gospel and why we believe it Picture Quote #1

My worldview comes from a collection of the books I have read, the people I have met, and my conversations with my dad Picture Quote #1

We have higher quality conversations in restaurants than at home. It’s as though we rise to the occasion by selecting worthwhile, less mundane subjects to discuss when eating out, just as we dress more carefully Picture Quote #1

Cynicism is more than a pose; it’s also a handy time saver. By deflating your companion’s enthusiasm, you can cut conversations in half Picture Quote #1

Humans abhor a vacuum. The immediate filling of a vacuum is one of the basic functions of speech. Meaningless conversations are no less important in our lives than meaningful ones Picture Quote #1

There is a huge difference between writing a book, which is a private activity I engage in with myself, and wanting to engage in overly intimate personal conversations with strangers, which I pretty much never want to do Picture Quote #1

I feel very open with people, and I’m good at disarming them and having conversations Picture Quote #1

When I have conversations with people, for some strange reason they think I’m gonna die and they’re not. But you know what? Death means nothing to me Picture Quote #1

I am mostly a pretty worried person. In conversations, I am always worried about what to say Picture Quote #1

I talk to trees and animals. We have interesting conversations about food, weather, and love. They sometimes can predict the future Picture Quote #1

We’re living in a state where no one can trust his telephone conversations, nor even his personal conversations in a room, in a bar or anywhere else Picture Quote #1

Even five minute meaningful conversations with other people not only fuel us in the moment but also build up a reserve of social capital so that when hard times strike, we can draw down on that bank account Picture Quote #1
