“What Foundling does isn’t thinking outside the box so much as stealing the box and hitting her opponents with it until they stop moving.” – Extract from “A Commentary on the Uncivil Wars”, by Juniper of the Red Moon Clan”

“Why have so many schools reduced the time and emphasis they place on art, music, and physical education? The answer is beyond simple: those areas aren’t measured on the all-important tests. You know where those areas are measured… in life! Art, music, and a healthy lifestyle help us develop a richer, deeper, and more balanced perspective. Never before have we needed more of an emphasis on the development of creativity, but schools have gone the exact opposite direction in an effort to make the best test-taking automatons possible. Our economy no longer rewards people for blindly following rules and becoming a cog in the machine. We need risk-takers, outside-the-box thinkers, and entrepreneurs; our school systems do the next generation a great disservice by discouraging these very skills and attitudes. Instead of helping and encouraging them to find and develop their unique strengths, they're told to shut up, put the cell phones away, memorize these facts and fill in the bubbles.”

“I do not understand normalcy. You have to be out of your mind to think outside the box. You need to think outside the box to make real change. Why remain a spectator when you can own the game?”

Normalcy Outside The Box Out Of Your Mind

“«O persone ragionevoli!», esclamai sorridendo «Passione! Ubriacamento! Pazzia! Voi uomini per bene, come rimanete impassibili ed estranei a tutto questo! Rimproverate l'ubriacone, condannate l'insensato, passate loro dinnanzi come il sacrificatore, e ringraziate Iddio, come il fariseo, perché non mi ha fatto simili a loro! Più di una volta io mi sono ubriacato, le mie passioni non sono mai tanto lontane dalla follia, ma non mi pento, perché ho imparato, dietro la mia esperienza, a capire che tutti gli uomini fuori del comune che hanno fatto qualcosa di grande, qualcosa di apparentemente impossibile, sono stati in ogni tempo considerati ubriachi o pazzi... Ma anche nella vita d'ogni giorno è intollerabile sentir gridare ogniqualvolta stia per compiersi un'azione libera, nobile e inaspettata: "Quest'uomo è ubriaco, è pazzo". Vergognatevi, uomini sobri! Vergognatevi, uomini saggi!»”

“Outside the box" is an overused cliche which goes nowhere near far enough. In fact, there are so many politicians and salesmen thinking outside the box these days that I am convinced that all of their boxes are completely empty!”

Politicians Cliche Outside The Box Salesmen

“I think of the New Testament story of the woman with an issue of blood--specifically of her hand reaching out into the clutter and chaos of a crowd, not sure that she would reach Christ, but nevertheless reaching for him in hope. Her story is sacred to me because she truly believed that by reaching outside of the bounds that her culture had set for her--perhaps even the bounds she had set for herself--she could be made whole.”

“It was a tough journey, though, and I realize that some people don’t have the endurance, or the faith, to continue in the face of such great resistance. But not a day goes by when I don’t meet someone who’s also put it all on the line and is working their butt off to achieve their professional and personal dreams. Many millennials, in particular, are willing to take a chance and do something outside the box, without the “right” degree or experience or any guarantee of future success. They’re willing to start a business—a tech company, a nonprofit—with a couple of friends or alone in their apartment. They’ve rejected the narrative that most boomers lived by—that you should go to school, get a job, work for the same company for thirty years, trust that the company will take care of you after retirement with a pension and possibly stock options. They’ve rejected that narrative because it doesn’t exist anymore in most cases. Most of the millennials who expect that path are, in my opinion, the ones still living at home. Getting angry at “the man” for keeping them down. Waiting for someone else, the government most likely, to come in and save the day. These are the ones who reject or don’t take personal responsibility. Who get out of college, get their first job, and want to be the boss of the company the very same day. They’re twenty-five, have no experience beyond that one semester as an intern, but they want that corner office and $100K in year one.”
