“In reality, in most American companies, only few handpicked—arguably appointed— individuals in powerful positions; positions like leadership, finance, treasury, advisory, and so on, have the last say in what matters. Their words, no matter how nonsensical, are treated as the ultimate wisdom. Their silences are emulated by everyone else working under them, regardless of any human, capital, or ethical costs resulting from such silences. These powerful individuals are often so emotionally and intellectually abusive that employees treat even their most absurd suggestions as roadmaps dictating the direction of any company or project at hand.”

“Manusia bermimpi tidak hanya waktu ia tidur. Menurut saya, mimpi merupakan bentuk lain dari kreativitas. Menjadi kreatif tidak kenal siang atau malam. Ada banyak pekerjaan yang masih punya ruang untuk inspirasi, tapi banyak juga pekerjaan yang menyita segalanya. Pekerjaan tanpa mimpi, atau tanpa waktu untuk bermimpi, adalah pekerjaan robot. Bukan manusia.”

“The object of all who came to Oregon in early times was to avail themselves of the privilege of a donation claim, and my opinion to-day is that every man and woman fully earned and merited all they got, but we have a small class of very small people here now who have no good word for the old settler that so bravely met every danger and privation, and by hard toil acquired, and careful economy, saved the means to make them comfortable during the decline of life. These, however are degenerate scrubs, too cowardly to face the same dangers that our pioneer men and women did, and too lazy to perform an honest day’s work if it would procure them a homestead in paradise. They would want the day reduced to eight hours and board thrown in.”
