Raise the Quality of Public Talk
When we raise the quality of public dialogue we
raise the quality of public decision making and consequently, the quality of community.

A Thought to Consider
“We trust in man
And still we use
To shape the feet
To fit the shoes.
A future world
With less conceit
Will shape the shoes
To fit the feet.”

Be Proud!
“Yield who will to their separation,My object in living is to uniteMy vocation and my avocationAs my two eyes make one in sight.
Only where love and need are one And work is play for mortal stake,Is the job ever really doneFor heaven and for future sake.”
Robert Frost“Two Tramps in Mud Time”
