Quote, Unquote
We have a crisis of leadership in America because our overwhelming power and wealth, earned under earlier generations of leaders, made us complacent, and for too long we have been training leaders who only know how to keep the routine going. Who can answer questions, but don’t know how to ask them. Who can fulfill goals, but don’t know how to set them. Who think about how to get things done, but not whether they’re worth doing in the first place.
~ William Deresiewicz

Merlin Otello here with a related book recommendation: The Feud Between Oasis Members Liam and Noel Gallagher. I order this book shortly after it was released in October. The feud between Noel and Liam Gallagher strangely paralleled the fights I had with my step brother. My hope is that one day I can heal the rift between myself and my brother Garab.
