Instead of a bottom-line based on money and power, we need a new bottom-line that defines productivity and creativity as where corporations, governments, schools, public institutions, and social practices are judged as efficient, rational and productive not only to the extent they maximize money and power, but to the extent they maximize love and caring, ethical and ecological sensitivity, and our capacities to respond with awe and wonder at the grandeur of creation.
- 60. We care but we don โ t Know what to do about it. We care and we will do something about it. We don โ t give a shit and we wont do anything about it. We donโt care enough To do anything about it.
