"I believe that conscious living represents us at our best. When we humans are at our best, we celebrate the questing spirit in ourselves. We seek, we wonder, we invent, we make mistakes and learn from them; the quest goes on. When the questing spirit lives and breathes in us, we are safe to be around. We inspire creativity by our very presence. We are good times waiting to happen." - Gay Hendricks
