“I don’t want to be sold on some vision. Rather, I want to know if the person doing the selling has been crushed enough times to know how costly a vision is. I don’t want to hear promises. Instead, I want to know if the person has been betrayed enough times to understand the power of a promise. I don’t want to be handed some long-listed resume boasting an array of achievements and accomplishments. Rather, I want to know if the person has experienced aching failure, been discarded along the roadside of life, faced ridicule at the hands of those they sought to serve, and sacrificed with no return on the sacrifice. For I am not interested in a platform. I am interested in the person who shaped the platform, for their personhood will prevail long after the platform is forgotten.”

“There are those who create adversaries by means of falsehood and propaganda. Once the divisions are heightened to a fever-pitch, these contrived adversaries are each placed on some socially engineered battlefield designed for a pitched battle of attrition. Yet the pinnacle of such social deception is that those who created this fabricated dynamic strategically insert themselves into it as the mitigating hero so that they might be elevated by the falsehood that they created, while the true heroes are left forgotten in the real battlefields where they have held the peace.”
