‪Dana Stewart Scott‬ - on learning

Edward Jay Epstein - Journalism

"The problem of journalism is simple. Journalists are rarely in a position to establish the truth of an issue themselves, since they didn't witness it personally. They are entirely dependent on self-interested sources to supply their facts. Every part of the news-making process is defined by this relationship; everything is coloured by this reality." ~Edward Jay Epstein

"Change is painful. It involves giving up comfortable old ways and habits. It is often said that the only thing we learn from history is that we do not learn." ~David G. Pumphrey

"Change must be welcomed with an open mind and a willing heart. New leadership styles must be developed that can accommodate and facilitate the new ideas upon which progress depends." ~David G. Pumphrey

"Shakespeare shows us how different leadership styles favor different times, situations, and cultures. He leaves us with the challenge to make a judgment call on which leadership style best suits us and the environment in which we are operating." ~David G Pumphrey

"...slow down, listen more, consult widely, and create management structures that allow new ideas to flourish." ~David G. Pumphrey

"The fault is not in our times, but in ourselves." ~David G. Pumphrey

Harry Bartlett - MUSIC

"Music has a powerful hold of most people, it can make you cry, reminisce or fill you with pure excitement and ecstasy! Sometimes the good vibes are so strong that all you want to do is jump up on stage and join the fun." ~Harry Bartlett

Jim Jarmusch - Authenticity

"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery – celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from – it’s where you take them to." ~Jim Jarmusch

Luc Godard - to and fro

“It’s not where you take things from – it’s where you take them to."

"The biggest problem our country faces isn’t drugs or poverty or transport or environmental. The current biggest problem has been the same biggest problem for over half a century. CORRUPTION HAS RAPED AND BURIED THE FILIPINO." ~Franco Mabanta, MindaNation, August 12, 2017

Joanna Budwig Quotes

"Cancer cells are simply cells that lack the necessary at a molecular level (with the right photons and neutrons) in order to mature. Furthermore, she found that the red blood cells of cancer patients have no fatty layer, unlike the ones in healthy people." ~Joanna Budwig, Scientist

“I have the answer to cancer, but American doctors won’t listen. They come here and observe my methods and are impressed. Then they want to make a special deal so they can take it home and make a lot of money. I won’t do it, so I’m blackballed in every country.” ~Joanna Budwig
