We are willing to infringe on the sovereignty of others in the name of human rights and democracy. We have no tolerance for body bags, yet we impose trade sanctions and drop bombs from high altitudes in defense of our principles. Our principles are supposed to have universal validity, yet we insist on judging how and when they should be applied. There is a double standard at work that is liable to offend the rest of humanity, and Americans are not even aware of it. -George Soros

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. -Ralph Waldo Emerson, writer and philosopher (1803-1882)
A review of ideas, thoughts, rants, raves, and other musings from a young entrepreneur, venture capitalist, technology analyst, globalisation pundit, relationship developer, and kiteboarding fanatic.
