Rethinking

Thoughts to startle, to inspire, to ponder.

“No problem can be solved from the same consciousness that created it.”

Albert Einstein

Physicist

“In the course of history, there comes a time when humanity is called to shift to a new level of consciousness to reach a higher moral ground. A time when we have to shed our fear and give hope to each other. That time is now.”

Wangari Maathai

Nobel Laureate, Environmental Activist

“Again and again some people in the crowd wake up.

They have no ground in the crowd,

And they emerge according to much broader laws.

They carry strange customs with them.

And demand room for bold gestures.

The future speaks ruthlessly through them.”

Rainer Maria Rilke

Poet
