Rosabeth Moss Kanter“While our life remains more chaotic than not, we continue to land on our blistered feet, drag each other out of the quicksand, beg for forgiveness as we wander out of the doghouse, and dig for the humor beneath our grief.

Donnie Kanter Winokur“Change is disturbing when it is done to us, exhilarating when it is done by us.”
Rosabeth Moss Kanter“Aron Moss wrote a wonderful article on this topic in which he explains, ”We don't really want answers, we don't want explanations, and we don't want closure. … We want an end to suffering … but we shouldn't leave it up to God to alleviate suffering. … He is waiting for us to do it. That's what we are here for.”
ARON MOSS“The key question, it seemed to him, was that of whether man was to obey Nature, or attempt to command her. It had been answered long, long ago, claimed Moss; man's very essence lay in the fact that he had elected to command. But to Stenham that seemed a shallow reply. To him wisdom consisted in the conscious and joyous obedience to natural laws, yet when he had said that to Moss, Moss had laughed pityingly. 'My dear man, wisdom is a primitive concept,' he had told him. 'What we want now is knowledge.' Only great disillusionment could make a man say such a thing, Stenham believed.”
Paul Bowles, The Spider's House“It is better to do what you love for work, but if it is your day job that enables an unpaid passion, then your life is still sweeter. What is important is that you make time for your dreams, not whether or not you get paid for it.”
Tara Moss“Travel and society polish one, but a rolling stone gathers no moss, and a little moss is a good thing on a man.”
John Burroughs“A moss which leaves its ocean becomes pale and dries up and a man which leaves his mother country is a moss which leaves it ocean!”
