quote of the day - the blame game
"All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with another, and regardless of how much you blame him, it will not change you. The only thing blame does is to keep the focus off you when you are looking for external reasons to explain your unhappiness or frustration. You may succeed in making another feel guilty about something by blaming him, but you won't succeed in changing whatever it is about you that is making you unhappy."

Quote of the day - the wisdom of an entire species
"If we share any part of the wider biological legacy of flocks, may it be this: that in times of great need a few individuals acting boldly on their convictions can trigger a shift toward collective survival that is both swift and widely shared. We are never acting alone when we do this. It only appears that way. When we seize upon a strong conviction to change, it is the wisdom of an entire species that may be acting through us, and none of us will ever have to carry that burden alone."
