Summary

This quote highlights the importance of having both moral and intellectual independence as a foundation for national independence. Moral independence implies having a sense of ethics and principles, guiding the actions and decisions of a nation. Intellectual independence emphasizes the ability to think critically and objectively, free from outside influence or biases. Without these two pillars, a nation's independence would lack a sturdy anchor, as it could be easily swayed or manipulated by external forces, compromising its autonomy and sovereignty.

It's hard to tell with these Internet startups if they're really interested in building companies or if they're just interested in the money. I can tell you, though: If they don't really want to build a company, they won't luck into it. That's because it's so hard that if you don't have a passion, you'll give up.

With a sigh, he grabbed hold of his chair and lifted himself out of it, then wrote on the blackboard: How will we ever get out of this labyrinth of suffering? - A.Y.'I'm going to leave that up for the rest of the semester,' he said.'Because everybody who has ever lost their way in life has felt the nagging insistence of that question. At some point we all look up and realize we are lost in a maze, and I don't want us to forget Alaska, and I don't want to forget that even when the material we study seems boring, we're trying to understand how people have answered that question and the questions each of you posed in your papers--how different traditions have come to terms with what Chip, in his final, called 'people's rotten lots in life.
