Through this journal, we are inviting you into a new way of thinking and doing, one which begins with questioning everything we take for granted.
In particular, how we contribute – or think we contribute – to a better world. We will not have all the answers, but we want to ask better questions.
“You cannot carry out fundamental change without a certain amount of madness. In this case, it comes from nonconformity, the courage to turn your back on the old formulas, the courage to invent the future. Besides, it took the madmen of yesterday for us to be able to act with extreme clarity today. I want to be one of those madmen.” — Thomas Sankara

“Times are difficult globally; awakening is no longer a luxury or an ideal. It’s become critical. We don’t need to add more depression, more discouragement, or more anger to what’s already there. It’s becoming essential that we learn how to relate sanely with difficult times.” — Pema Chödrön
“To designate a hell is not, of course, to tell us anything about how to extract people from that hell, how to moderate hell’s flames.” — Susan Sontag
“There is a painting by Klee called Angelus Novus. An angel is depicted there who looks as though he were about to distance himself from something which he is staring at. His eyes are opened wide, his mouth stands open and his wings are outstretched. The Angel of History must look just so.” — Walter Benjamin
“We shape ourselves to fit this world, and by the world are shaped again.” — David Whyte
“In a world of insanity, it is the strong that go crazy; and it is the weak that just go along.” — Assata Shakur
