“Life is more than thought: what a man feels, and what his senses awaken in him, are more indispensable to his life's fullness than subsequent reflection on their significance. Both Stirner and Nietzsche have elaborated Faust's opening speech in which he bemoans his wasted years in academia: this speech is Goethe's own impeachment of Kant and Hegel . Philosophy proceeds always under the risk of making a fetish of thinking.” ThinkingMenFeelsYearsPhilosophyLife IsRiskSpeechReflectionSensesOpeningSignificanceIndispensableFullnessAcademiaFetishHegelImpeachmentFaust Author:John Carroll
“We need many more intrepid women who set out to expand both their and our concepts of the world. We need them in writing just as we need them in politics. We need that sense of adventure, of reaching wider, delving deeper, pushing further afield, whether that field be geographical, intellectual, political, personal, or all of these and more. Enough with decorousness. Let us risk preconceptions and treasured philosophies, bodies and souls. Let us be big and bawdy and full of courage. Let's go.” WorldNeedsWritingSoulEnoughPhilosophyBodyBigsPoliticalRiskFieldsAdventureIntellectualConceptsDeeperReachingPushingPreconceptionsTreasuredDelving Author:Lesley Hazleton

That we need to drive creative destruction, not just incremental innovations, but innovations that will change the whole nature of the business.” NeedsTryingPhilosophyWholePastValuesEnemyCreativeRiskCreationDestructionInnovationFundamentalsComponentsComplacentFuture SuccessPast SuccessCreative Destruction Author:Charles Koch
“I really like Jason Blum a lot. We're friends, and while we make wildly disparate films, we share a philosophy about low-budget filmmaking, about taking chances on young filmmaking, taking risks and obliterating our salary so we can make something cheaply and if it wins everyone wins big.” IfsPhilosophyBigsFilmYoungWinningChanceRiskShareLowsBudgetsFilmmakingSalaryTake A ChanceJasonTaking Risks Author:Mark Duplass
