| | |
| | |
| "I want and visualize and aspire toward a system of society and
| |
| learning where each person is able to rise to his or her fullest
| |
| potential without social or financial encumberance, where they may
| |
| express themselves fully and without reservation through art, writing,
| |
| athletics, invention, or even through their avocations or lifestyle.
| |
| | |
| Where they are able to form networks of meaningful and rewarding
| |
| relationships with their peers, with people who share the same
| |
| interests or hobbies, the same political or religious affiliations - or
| |
| different interests or affiliations, as the case may be.
| |
| | |
| This to me is a society where knowledge and learning are public goods,
| |
| freely created and shared, not hoarded or withheld in order to extract
| |
| wealth or influence.
| |
| | |
| This is what I aspire toward, this is what I work toward". - Stephen
