George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950), Man and Superman (1903) "Maxims for Revolutionists"
You see things; and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?"
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950), "Back to Methuselah" (1921), part 1, act 1
Don't let fear convince you that you're too weak to have courage. Fear is the opportunity for courage, not the proof of cowardice.
McCain, John (2004, September). In Search of Courage: Finding the Courage Within You. FastCompany, 51-56.
In the search for character and commitment, we must rid ourselves of our inherited, even cherished biases and prejudices. Character, ability and intelligence are not concentrated in one sex over the other, nor in persons with certain accents or in certain races or in persons holding degrees from some universities over others. When we indulge ourselves in such irrational prejudices, we damage ourselves most of all and ultimately assure ourselves of failure in competition with those more open and less biased.
J. Irwin Miller, Chairman of the Board (1951-1977), Cummins Inc. From 1983 letter about diversity at the company.

Decision made on ICA
No International Communication Association (ICA) Conference for me. I paid my student registration then found out there are no rooms in the conference hotel, and no hotels that are cost effective and close to the conference hotel. They have arranged for a block of rooms at NYU but it's a 10 minute walk to the subway and then a 20 minute ride once you are on it. *sigh* Not a good way for me to start out a day.
So for my registration I get access to the papers online. And everyone else can tell me what a great time I missed. *sigh* This means that my next "trip" won't be until November and the National Communication Association, in Boston - assuming my panel is accepted. Before that I have two conference scheduled but both are car drives away so that doesn't feel like much of a "trip." Oh well, most of that is mind set. LOL Next year will be a big travel year, assuming I hit HICSS in Hawaii, ICA in Germany, and AoIR in Australia - a couple of week trip if I get to go since I have friends and family to visit (meet?) there.
