Quotes from John Abrams

If the people who make the decisions are the people who will also bear the consequences of those decisions, perhaps better decisions will result.

Hope ... is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously headed for early success, but, rather, an ability to work for something because it is good, not just because it stands a chance to succeed. Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well, but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out.1
