I think a major act of leadership right now, call it a radical act, is to create the places and processes so people can actually learn together, using our experiences.

Margaret J. Wheatley

Music, in performance, is a type of sculpture. The air in the performance is sculpted into something.

Frank Zappa

Nerd love. It's a beautiful thing, while also being an object of mockery and hilarity for those of us who are more sophisticated.

Cassandra Clare
