“The philosopher Roberto Unger introduced me to the direct idea that our roots can lie in the future—and that in a democracy, “prophecy speaks louder than memory.”
Pete Davis, Dedicated: The Case for Commitment in an Age of Infinite Browsing

“That’s what commitments are—alternatives to self-obsession. Commitments free us to dedicate ourselves to something bigger than ourselves—to something beyond our shells. The French philosopher Jacques Maritain said that the meaning of life is “self-mastery for the purpose of self-giving.” This is the challenge of growing up—to turn the corner from self-mastery to self-giving. What is the moment at that corner—between inwardness, growth, and concerted self-development and outwardness, public interestedness, and other-centeredness? Commitment.”
Pete Davis, Dedicated: The Case for Commitment in an Age of Infinite Browsing
