“I think I have the best job in the world. Seventy-one percent of the planet is covered by water, we've explored less than five percent of the ocean, and there are so many fabulous discoveries that have yet to be made.” ThinkingWorldMadeJobsWaterFivePlanetsOceanPercentDiscoveryCoveredFabulousSeventiesBest Job Author:Edith Widder
“People want leadership, Mr. President, and in the absence of genuine leadership, they'll listen to anyone who steps up to the microphone. They want leadership.

It is a natural and fatal attraction.” MindSelfFightingWaterNaturalPiecesLike YouDiscoveryWarmAttractionSelf DiscoveryIceCan NotMeltingFatal Attraction Author:Mooji
“And yet we constantly reclaim some part of that primal spontaneity through the youngest among us, not only through their sorrow and anger but simply through everyday discoveries, life unwrapped. To see a child touch the piano keys for the first time, to watch a small body slice through the surface of the water in a clean dive, is to experience the shock, not of the new, but of the familiar revisited as though it were strange and wonderful.” FirstsChildrenBodyWaterWatchesWonderfulChildhoodStrangeKeysSorrowDiscoveryFirst TimeExperienceCleanEverydaySurfaceFamiliarPianoShockSpontaneityPrimalPiano Keys Author:Anna Quindlen
“Economic progress means the discovery and application of better ways of doing things to satisfy our wants. The piping of water to a household that previously dragged it from a well, the growing of two blades of grass where one grew before, the development of a power loom that enables one man to weave ten times as much as he could before, the use of steam power and electric power instead of horse or human power - all these things clearly represent economic progress.” MenWayWantHumansWellsMeanTwoUseWaterGrowingProgressEconomicGrewDevelopmentTenDiscoveryHorseGrassOne ManApplicationElectricHouseholdBladesBetter WaysSteamBlades Of GrassHuman PowerEconomic ProgressElectric Power Author:Kenneth E.
