• For me, collaborating is a marriage of the minds. It's two or more people coming together and making an idea come alive. Using their own creative knowledge or creative spirit to make the best version of an idea. To inspire an idea and to challenge it to be better than just one person's vision for it.

• The image of Earth from space transformed our view of ourselves. It is maybe the most important image that exists - because we can see ourselves in context in a way that otherwise would be really hard to explain. It should inspire us to wonder about it, to want to know everything we can about it and do everything we can to take care of it.

• Never try to compel others to change; leave them free to change naturally and orderly because they want to; and they will want to when they find that your change was worthwhile.

• There is a string attached to Maia Sharp's voice. And when she sings, you find that the other
  end is attached to your gut. Her voice is lush and sensual and the emotions she articulates
  resonate with the small feelings we have that sometimes are hard to face..there is an edge to
  her songs, but also a softness...she is lyrical and conversational at the same time. Her CD was
  the only one in my machine for a month. Her work inspires me to dig deeper.
