Quote by Don Bemrose

“I love that I’ve been lucky enough to travel to every Australian city and work with some of the best, most forward-thinking individuals, and coach many to extraordinary feats. I love the friendships that have been culturally safe and supported me to reach my childhood goals and taught me that our differences make us stronger not weaker.”

“She was back. Even so, Will didn't move. He would wait her out, fake-relaxing in the uncomfortable chair with his head not against the wall, tapping his hands to Bureaucratic Barbara's brainwashing beat as an act of solidarity with every other man she'd tried to enervate with her bell and refusal to offer change. [inner dialog of Will Phillips]”

“There is a movement in our culture today that equates strength, especially but not only manly strength, with exploiting whatever power one has over others - be it physical strength, elite social standing, or financial prowess - at the expense of those who are weaker. This surely is a brutal morality - a "dog eat dog" attitude to life that ill becomes people or their canine friends. But there is another concept of strength, and that is the power to help the weak - to support those who are less able to fend for themselves. I'm not a religious person but I honor and respect the great spiritual leaders who over the millennia have taught that we find our greatest strength when we aid the weakest among us.”
