Ted Cadsby
“We are facing greater ecological instability, deeper social complexity and a growing need for individual meaning that would be foreign to all but our most recent ancestors. We cannot reach the destinations we choose for ourselves if we do not alter our navigation systems to accommodate the greater complexity in our lives”
Ted Cadsby, Closing the Mind Gap: Making Smarter Decisions in a Hypercomplex World

“If you don't believe in transcendent experience, you haven't been to the right concert, you know, you haven't used the right drugs, you haven't had sex with the right partner.”
Bart Campolo, Why I Left, Why I Stayed: Conversations on Christianity Between an Evangelical Father and His Humanist Son

Albert Camus
“Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow
Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend”
Albert Camus

“English does not distinguish between arrogant-up (irreverence toward the temporarily powerful) and arrogant-down (directed at the small guy).”
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms

Ted Cadsby
“Complex thinkers attempt to extend to others the same self-forgiving bias that they offer themselves.”
