Quotes by Jono Bacon (?)

“belonging is our goal. It is that nine-letter word that you should write out in large letters and stick on your office wall. It is that word that should be at the forefront of your inspiration”

“He isn't a codebase; he is a human being, and bugs are harder to spot and fix in humans. You can't just deploy a fix immediately. It takes time to identify the problem and foster and grow a change.”

“Building a community is a complex business, though. It involves careful planning and consideration, but also the freedom to empower your community members to accomplish things that you never dreamed of.”
