“There are advantages to being the chairman. One of my favorite perks was picking out an issue and doing what I called a "deep dive." It's spotting a challenge where you think you can make a difference - one that looks like it would be fun - and then throwing the weight of your position behind it. Some might justifiably call it "meddling."

“One difference between libertarianism and socialism is that a socialist society can't tolerate groups of people practicing freedom, but a libertarian society can comfortably allow people to choose voluntary socialism. If a group of people - even a very large group - wanted to purchase land and own it in common, they would be free to do so. The libertarian legal order would require only that no one be coerced into joining or giving up his property.” PeopleIfsGivingWould BeWantedOrderDifferencesCommonGroupsLandGiving UpPropertyLibertarianSocialismLibertarianismTolerateSocialistJoiningLarge Groups Author:David Boaz
“The prevailing tendency to regard all the marked distinctions of human character as innate, and in the main indelible, and to ignore the irresistible proofs that by far the greater part of those differences, whether between individuals, races, or sexes are such as not only might but naturally would be produced by differences in circumstances, is one of the chief hinderances to the rational treatment of great social questions, and one of the greatest stumbling blocks to human improvement.” HumansCharacterMightWould BeIndividualSocialSexDifferencesRaceGreaterCircumstancesEthicsRegardProofImprovementRationalTendenciesBlockChiefsDistinctionTreatmentInnateIrresistiblePrevailingStumblingIndelibleStumbling Blocks Book:Autobiography of John Stuart Mill Source: Autobiography of John Stuart Mill

“Love is the expansion of two natures in such fashion that each include the other, each is enriched by the other. Love is an echo in the feelings of a unity subsisting between two persons which is founded both on likeness and on complementary differences.
