The end of education is to see men made whole, both in competence and in conscience.

There is no more vulnerable human combination than an undergraduate.

We define ourselves as intelligent. That's odd, because we're doing the definition - We're creating our own definition and saying, 'We are intelligent!'

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

I never feel more alone than when I'm traveling. Alone and, to some extent, helpless. The world expects a certain level of competence and can be merciless when this expectation is unmet.
