What Bus Are You On? By: Michael Skye | - "The problems we have now in communities and societies are going to be resolved only when we are brought together by a common sense that each of us is a visionary.

Instead of looking for a great leader, we are in an era where each of us needs to find the great leader in ourselves." -Werner Erhard
