Book cover for The Road to Sleeping Dragon: Learning China from the Ground Up
That was the one good thing about being diagnosed with a terminal illness, he said: you suddenly became very aware of how you spent the seconds that remained. He kept his eye on the countdown clock that we all carry within.

Rainer Maria Rilke
“Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Tyson Yunkaporta
“If people are laughing, they are learning. True learning is a joy because it is an act of creation.”
Tyson Yunkaporta, Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World

John Paul Lederach
“spacemoments of lived experience are continuously multidirectional.”
John Paul Lederach, When Blood and Bones Cry Out: Journeys through the Soundscape of Healing and Reconciliation

Paulo Freire
“Libertarian action must recognize this dependence as a weak point and must attempt through reflection and action to transform it into independence. However, not even the best-intentioned leadership can bestow independence as a gift. The liberation of the oppressed is a liberation of women and men, not things. Accordingly, while no one liberates himself by his own efforts alone, neither is he liberated by others. Liberation, a human phenomenon, cannot be achieved by semihumans. Any attempt to treat people as semihumans only dehumanizes them.”
Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed

Thich Nhat Hanh
“Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. Every breath we take, every step we take, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. The question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.”
Thich Nhat Hanh, Peace Is Every Step: The Path of Mindfulness in Everyday Life
