Mahatma Gandhi, (attributed)
Indian ascetic & nationalist leader (1869 - 1948)
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
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.

CFP - FILLERS IN GRAMMAR AND DISCOURSE
FILLERS IN GRAMMAR AND DISCOURSE
Panel Proposed at the 10th International Pragmatics Conference
8-13 July 2007, Goeteborg, Sweden
http://www.let.uu.nl/~Nino.Amiridze/personal/organization/fillers.html
SCOPE
===========
We would like to invite researchers interested in the role of fillers in grammar and discourse to submit abstracts for participation in a panel proposed for the 10th International Pragmatics Conference. Contributions studying various types of fillers, their morphophonology, morphosyntax, pragmatics and/or diachronic development in a particular language or across a sample of languages are welcome. We would also be interested to have contributions from psycholinguists working on fillers in language acquisition and from neurolinguists who are interested in the use of repair strategies in lexical access failure.
DATES
===========
If you are interested, please send one page abstract (with an optional additional page for data and references) by September 4, 2006 to Nino.Amiridze@let.uu.nl
You will be informed on acceptance/rejection in the beginning of October, 2006.
ORGANIZERS
===========
Nino Amiridze, Utrecht University (The Netherlands)
Hiroaki Kitano, Aichi University of Education (Japan)
PUBLICATION
===========
If after the meeting there will be interest in publishing either a proceedings or a special journal issue, then the organizers will take responsibility of finding a suitable forum and will act as editors.
