Essays On The Media Quotes

“Trust, if you like, but remember that trust is a gift you give to another, a gift that no one has the right to demand of you. Trust authority, if trusting is your choice. But do so conditionally, as you should trust anyone. Just as anyone should assume that they should earn your trust, so too should they expect that they must maintain your trust. If they do not receive your trust as a sacred gift, they are unworthy of it.”

“I write like the world depends on it, because I believe each of us speaking from the truth that is inside of us will shape the world towards beauty and truth far more than us conforming ourselves to work within a machine that seeks to steamroller all unapproved and dissenting voices.”
