QUOTES

Joseph: "So much of the learning in life is actually from unlearning the conditioning we've grown up and the conditioning that was passed on to us through many generations. We're seeing in the world today just how dysfunctional so many societies have become. To me, so much of what's required now is an unlearning."

Scott: "The only thing that COVID-19 has done, in my opinion, has been to exacerbate everything or maybe to speed it up, or make it undeniable. The alienation and separation that people have been feeling have been documented in studies of the workplace, trust in business, trust in institutions like government, involvement in a whole other host of civic organizations, even political involvement. That alienation leads to cynicism, it leads to division, it leads to separation from each other's heart and it goes to what you do fundamentally for a living."

Joseph: “The church needs to become smaller. It needs to become more localized and it needs to allow, and I don't know that it will, but it needs to allow local priests and local nuns deal with the realities on the ground and properly be of service to the real needs of the people in their communities. Not what the church says the needs are, the great edifice of the church but the real needs of the people, and actually and genuinely and completely, and fully, serve.”

Joseph: "Don't judge me by my words. Are my words and actions congruent and consistent? If they're not, call me out on it."

Joseph: "Everybody wears a mask. No matter who you are, no matter where you're from, no matter what level of success you've attained in your life has some level of insecurity about something earlier in their life. Everybody, no exceptions."
