“Ideas are the most powerful force shaping human culture.”

“Your number one mission as a speaker is to take something that matters deeply to you and to rebuild it inside the minds of your listeners.”

“We live in an age when it is not illegal to be an optimist.”

“Knowledge can't be downloaded into our brains. It has to be built, grown, planted, and nurtured.”

“When you look someone in the eye, you're able to feel a connection with them that is powerful and exciting.”

“For a dream to be powerful, it has to be a shared dream.”

“A good talk is a journey.”

“Walk in the shoes of your audience. What do they know? What do they care about? What are they curious about?”
