A small group of people can change the world

“A small group of thoughtful people could change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that has.” Margaret Mead.

This quote came from the RSA clip below: The Enlightenment in the 21st Century.

The two questions I took from this are:

Where are we NOW, how’d we GET HERE, and where do we wanna GO next?

and

Who ARE we, who do we NEED to be, and who might we ASPIRE to be?

As the current ruling species on this planet that, in my opinion, are not such a bad bunch most of the time, or at least some of the time we’re not so bad… I think these are important questions to ask.
