nothing can happen . without having an effect . on its surroundings
it isn’t often . layers underneath something . are exposed to view
rivals will often . have more similarities . than differences
self proclaimed experts . can talk about ideas . and avoid the truth
ideas succeed . only if they’re feasible . closer to the ground
visibility . when you’re in a thunderstorm . is greatly reduced
lost in the safety . of other peoples’ thinking . we can’t hear ourselves
a river’s surface . does not reveal the story . of its true power
something important . has long since been forgotten . reminders remain
each crossing we meet . the river for the first time . never to repeat
