Notes | community"As William James wrote in Great Men and Their Environment, 'The community stagnates without the impulse of the individual; the impulse dies away without the sympathy of the community.'" (p. xxiii) dialogue"Concealing or revealing, uttered or written, language is so powerful and so fundamental to what makes us human that leading philosophers and scientists argue that it is at the very core of culture. The right words at the right time can make all the difference in the world. So can the ill-timed phrase and tired cliche. Language matters. It's the raw material of collaboration." (p. 74) |
