“All children need a laptop. Not a computer, but a human laptop. Moms, Dads, Grannies and Grandpas, Aunts, Uncles - someone to hold them, read to them, teach them. Loved ones who will embrace them and pass on the experience, rituals and knowledge of a hundred previous generations. Loved ones who will pass to the next generation their expectations of them, their hopes, and their dreams.” LoveNeedsHumansChildrenDreamNextTeachGenerationsMomDadComputerExpectationsHundredEmbraceRitualLoved OnesUnclesAuntNext GenerationLaptopsGrandpaGrannyPrevious GenerationsMom Dad Author:Colin Powell

“No man is brave that has never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, the great teacher, bitter as medicine, crueler than mirror-glass. A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet introspection.” IfsKnowsMenWantYearsPersonsLongNamesWalksTeachTeacherQuietTravelHundredMirrorsWho You AreMedicineBraveGlassesMilesBitterAbout YourselfGreat Teacher Author:Patrick Rothfuss
“We have to accept ourselves in order to write. Now none of us does that fully: few of us do it even halfway. Don’t wait for one hundred percent acceptance of yourself before you write, or even eight percent acceptance. Just write. The process of writing is an activity that teaches us about acceptance.” WritingDoeOrderWaitingProcessAcceptingTeachAcceptanceActivityPercentHundredEightHalfway Book:Wild Mind: Living the Writer’s Life Source: Wild Mind: Living the Writer’s Life
“Teach him to live rather than to avoid death: life is not breath, but action, the use of our senses, our mind, our faculties, every part of ourselves which makes us conscious of our being. Life consists less in length of days than in the keen sense of living. A man maybe buried at a hundred and may never have lived at all. He would have fared better had he died young.” MenMindMayUseActionYoungLife IsTeachConsciousHundredDiedBreathsSensesLengthFacultyBuriedLife Death Author:Jean-Jacques Rousseau
