[Quote No.9590] Need Area: Friends > General
"For every parent who violates the sacred trust every child represents, there are thousands committed not only to protecting their children but also to protecting all children. That desire is our highest calling. The actual expression of that desire defines the character of each individual. And we can only truly express such a desire with behavior — [because] rhetoric won't get the job done.

[Quote No.9655] Need Area: Friends > General
"Each of us must come to care about everyone else's children. We must recognize that the welfare of our children is intimately linked to the welfare of all other people's children. After all, when one of our children needs life-saving surgery, someone else's child will perform it. If one of our children is harmed by violence, someone else's child will be responsible for the violent act. The good life for our own children can be secured only if a good life is also secured for all other people's children.

[Quote No.9657] Need Area: Friends > General
"What children are, more than anything else, is this: another chance for our flawed species to get it right... Future flowers, now seeds. Some hand-raised, nourished in love-richened ground. Others, tossed carelessly on the coldest concrete, struggling beneath Darwin's dispassionate sunlight...Some will reach the stars — some will stalk the shadows.

[Quote No.10292] Need Area: Friends > General
"The greatest single step in organic evolution was the aggregation of different bacteria to make the nucleated cell. Similarly, the greatest step so far in our cultural evolution has been the aggregation of different cultures to make multi-cultures. There are many kinds of multi-culture, ranging from multinational corporations to major cities like New York. But the self-complication of human culture will not stop there, because it is a self-propelled process. Today's multi-cultures are like the creatures of a colony, coexisting as more or less isolated ‘ghettos.' Tomorrow's multi-cultures will be more like genuine multi-cellular organism's, in which ‘extelligence' is specialized like the different tissues of a complex animal. Our new communication technologies are beginning to knit all of the different multi-cultures into a new entity, a superculture: Humanity.
