"I want my children to understand the world, but not just because the world is fascinating and the human mind is curious.
I want them to understand it, so they will be positioned to make the world a better place.
Knowledge is not the same as morality, but we need to understand if we are to avoid past mistakes and move in productive directions.
An important part of that understanding is knowing who we are, and what we can do...
​
Ultimately we must synthesize our understanding for ourselves.
the performance of understanding that try matters, are the ones we carry out as human beings in an imperfect world, which we can affect for good or for ill."
