"The best thing-in Shadow's opinion, perhaps the only good thing-about being in prison was a feeling of relief. The feeling that he'd plunged as low as he could plunge and he'd hit bottom. He didn't worry that the man was going to get him, because the man had got him. He was no longer scared of what tomorrow might bring, because yesterday had brought it."

"Thinking is the place where intelligent actions begin. We pause long enough to look more carefully at a situation, to see more of its character, to think about why it's happening, to notice how it's affecting us and others."
Character
"Probably the most visible example of unintended consequences, is what happens every time humans try to change the natural ecology of a place."
Change
"I've wanted to see beyond the Western, mechanical view of the world and see what else might appear when the lens was changed."
World
"In our daily life, we encounter people who are angry, deceitful, intent only on satisfying their own needs. There is so much anger, distrust, greed, and pettiness that we are losing our capacity to work well together."
Life
"Our willingness to acknowledge that we only see half the picture creates the conditions that make us more attractive to others. The more sincerely we acknowledge our need for their different insights and perspectives, the more they will be magnetized to join us."
Will
"I'm sad to report that in the past few years, ever since uncertainty became our insistent 21st century companion, leadership has taken a great leap backwards to the familiar territory of command and control."
Leadership
"Organisations are now confronted with two sources of change: the traditional type that is initiated and managed; and external changes over which no one has control."
Control
"I think it is quite dangerous for an organisation to think they can predict where they are going to need leadership. It needs to be something that people are willing to assume if it feels relevant, given the context of any situation."
Leadership
"We know from science that nothing in the universe exists as an isolated or independent entity."
Science
"Without aggression, it becomes possible to think well, to be curious about differences, and to enjoy each other's company."
