Quotes to ponder:
"Humankind's ability to live well and prosper depends at its core only on productive land, sunshine and our collective knowledge."
"Produce value for the world much more than you consume things from the world."
"All of this will continue as long as most of us choose to remain happy, productive, and cooperative."
