Hank Green
“The solution is, everywhere and always, the decentralization and redistribution of all forms of power.”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor

Hank Green
“People who "don't consider race or gender" sure seem to end up hiring almost all white guys, almost as if they're absolutely considering race and gender.”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor

Hank Green
“There's that period in there, generally six to nine hours, in which you just aren't anymore. Excuse me for having thought about this a lot, but how does it not terrify us that we spend a third of every day in a conscious unconsciousness, living inside a virtual reality created by our own minds but that somehow we don't control? Like...what?!”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor

Hank Green
“For me, it goes without saying that much of the dogma of many religions is harmful. Thinking other people will burn forever because they love the wrong person or worship the wrong god has done a whole lot of bad.
What I wanted was the part where people were asked to get together once a week to talk about how to be a good person and, like, hang out with their neighbors. It's pretty amazing that apparently the only way to get people to do that is to invent an all-seeing, kindhearted sky dad who will be super disappointed/burn you for eternity if you don't show up.”

Hank Green
“You will always struggle with not feeling productive until you accept that your own joy can be something you produce. It is not the only thing you will make, nor should it be, but it is something valuable and beautiful.”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor
