“The truest strength is shouldering the burden of care.”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor

Hank Green
“You want stories that make sense, and this might not make sense to you. We build narratives of genius and exceptionality among the people who have power, and they are often exceptional, but no more exceptional than hundreds of thousands of others. In your system, power concentrates naturally. And so the thing that is most exceptional about a powerful person is almost always their power.”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor

Hank Green
“Power concentrates naturally, but that concentration is, by itself, a problem.”

“This is the battlefield every future war will be fought on, and the generals will not be human. The powerful will create them to control the rest. But there will not be one hegemonic story; instead, there will be many battles, mostly metaphorical...but not all.
Your fiction is full of robot wars. Machines turn on their masters and the two must do battle. But the robots will not turn on their masters, they will be the masters. In some ways, they already are. The robot wars will not be people against robots, they will be people against people.”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor

“The most impactful thing you can do with power is almost always to give it away.”
