Nature Is A Machine. The Family Is

I Have Been Very Lucky Because I Have Had The Opportunity To See What It's Like To Have Little Or No Money And What It's Like To Have A Lot Of It. I'm Lucky Because People Make Such A Big Deal Of It And, If I Didn't Experience Both, I Wouldn't Be Able To Know How Important It Really Is For Me. I Can't Comment On What Having A Lot Of Money Means To Others, But I Do Know That For Me, Having A Lot More Money Isn't A Lot Better Than Having Enough To Cover The Basics.

What Matters Most Is That The People You Work With Share Your Values.

I Have Found That By Looking At What Is Rewarded And Punished, And Why, Universally - I.e., In Nature As Well As In Humanity - I Have Been Able To Learn More About What Is "good" And "bad" Than By Listening To Most People's Views About Good And Bad.

I Think The Basic Problem Is That Everybody Thinks They Know What The Truth Is, And Sometimes They're Even Distorting The Truth To Make Their Arguments.

Never Say Anything About A Person You Wouldn't Say To Them Directly, And Don't Try People Without Accusing Them To Their Face. Badmouthing People Behind Their Backs Shows A Serious Lack Of Integrity And Is Counterproductive. It Doesn't Yield Any Beneficial Change, And It Subverts Both The People You Are Badmouthing And The Environment As A Whole.
