"Forgiveness fosters healing […] It facilitates excellence and improvement […] Forgiveness means taking the sting out […] that otherwise threatens to poison our existence […] "Forgiveness," according to the former president of India, Indira Gandhi, "is a virtue of the brave." […] To energize their people, truly effective leaders need to be at peace with themselves and past and present events in their life […] Trough play [ we ] acquire control of the world, as opposed to being subject to its vagaries. […] To quote John Cleese, "If you want creative workers, give them enough time to play." [T]he opposite of play is not work -- it's more like depression […] The Greek playwright Aeschylus […] said, "It is a profitable thing, if one is wise, to seem foolish."

"I man don't
I don't drink no champagne
[…]
'Cause I'm a man of the past
And I'm livin' in the present
And I'm walking in the future
Stepping in the future
[…]
I man don't
Eat up your fried chicken
Not lickin'
I man don't
Eat up them frankfurters
Garbage
I man don't
Eat down the hamburger
Can't do that
I man don't
Drink pink, blue, yellow, green soda"
