## About Garrick

* His profession made him rich and he made his profession respectable.
** Samuel Johnson, in going to Garrick's funeral, as quoted in Boswell's Life of Johnson
* I am disappointed by that stroke of death that has eclipsed the gaiety of nations, and impoverished the public stock of harmless pleasure.
** Samuel Johnson; carved on Garrick's memorial in Lichfield Cathedral
* So Shakespeare's page, the flower of poesy, Ere Garrick rose had charms for every eye; 'Twas Nature's genuine image wild and grand, The strong-marked picture of a master's hand. But when his Garrick, Nature's Pallas, came, The bard's bold painting burst into a flame: Each part new force and vital warmth received, As touched by Heaven—and all the picture lived.
** William Julius Mickle, "Stanzas on Mr. Garrick"

# David Geffen

David Lawrence Geffen (born February 21, 1943) is an American business magnate, producer, film studio executive, and philanthropist.

## Quotes

* Our relationship was based almost always on him calling up and asking, 'Is this a good deal?,' I’m not in his business, and I wasn’t trying to be. I was just a guy who admired him a lot and was flattered he wanted my advice. I buy my clothes at J.Crew online, I’m a very casual guy. When I go to see Iron Man 3, I’m not as enthralled as I was when I saw The Bridge on the River Kwai I don’t agree that the best giving is anonymous. We should be examples to our friends and communities. I should be an example to young, gay kids it’s not like people are really anonymous anyway -- you remember that episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm? In the end, everybody knows who 'anonymous' is.

# David Gerard O'Connell

David Gerard O'Connell (16 August 1953 – 18 February 2023) was an Irish prelate of the Catholic Church who served as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.

## Quotes

* We're all we're all a bit traumatized, people are easily triggered, people get mad at each other, blaming each other, condemning each other, canceling each other... and that's just the American bishops!
** "Rebuilding the Church" (18 March 2022) St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church
* I guess when we love somebody we want to see them loved by others and being praised by others. And that's what Jesus, even all through history, so many miracles are done at the intercession of Our Blessed Mother, so much good comes into the world at the intercession of Our Blessed Mother, because Jesus wants her to be loved. Wants people, wants you and I to love her as much as he loves her.
** Malta World Day of the Sick Mass; Archbishop Gomez celebrant and Bishop David O'Connell, Homilist. (11 February 2023) Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels

## Quotes about David Gerard O'Connell

* I remember thinking, "here's this great Irish guy, hope he does well." Little did I know he was already working circles around us native guys, just in terms of totally immersing himself in the community, making everyone feel that he was a kindred spirit to them, and he was. Dave was never a chameleon. He was never pretending to be any of these things. He did it because he was genuinely interested in everyone, wanting to love everyone.

### "How Graffiti Influenced Elizabeth Murray" (2017)

    "How Graffiti Influenced Elizabeth Murray", hyperallergic (October 25, 2017)
* Popular culture is one part of teeming life that everybody, all of us, are involved in,
* Everything I have done and experienced gets into the work somehow or another—my childhood, my family life, my grad-school days.
* My work is very much about being in the city. It's very much about the streets and the buildings and the feeling of enclosure. And in that sense New York is very conceptual. I'm not an intellectual, not by any means. I admire those minds very much. But New York is about enclosure and the energy of enclosure, and has a kind of a tough irony. I mean, it's a city of complete contrasts and some bitterness, conflict, anger, and it's also a … place of enormous hope.

## Quotes

* Chomsky treats the battle against fascism as a battle for moral purity than can be won when the left remain respectful, polite, and deferent. But fascists have no interest in winning that battle. They don't care about respecting free speech or the right to a fair trial; they've openly declared their murderous intent towards people of colour (and other undesirables) and they'll pursue that goal by any means necessary. In this context, physical resistance is a duty, an act of self-defence, not an unsightly outpost of leftist moral decline. What's more - it works. From the Battle of Cable Street in 1936 to similar confrontations in Lewisham and Wood Green in London in 1977, physical resistance has time and again protected local populations from racist violence, and prevented a gathering caucus of fascists from making further inroads into mainstream politics.

## Works
### Pollyanna (1913)

* It's funny how dogs and cats know the insides of folks better than other folks do, isn't it?
** Pollyanna
* Mrs. Snow had lived forty years, and for fifteen of those years she had been too busy wishing things were different to find much time to enjoy things as they were.
* Well, maybe 'tis natural. Of course things you don't know about are always nicer'n things you do, same as the pertater on 'tother side of the plate is always the biggest. But I wish I looked that way ter somebody 'way off. Wouldn't it be jest great, now, if only somebody over in India wanted ME?
** Jimmy Bean
* ...this great grey pile of stone has been a house, never a home. It takes a woman's hand and heart, or a child's presence to make a home...
** John Pendleton
* What men and women need is encouragement. Their natural resisting powers should be strengthened, not weakened.... Instead of always harping on a man's faults, tell him of his virtues. Try to pull him out of his rut of bad habits. Hold up to him his better self, his REAL self that can dare and do and win out!... The influence of a beautiful, helpful, hopeful character is contagious, and may revolutionize a whole town.... People radiate what is in their minds and in their hearts. If a man feels kindly and obliging, his neighbors will feel that way, too, before long. But if he scolds and scowls and criticizes — his neighbors will return scowl for scowl, and add interest!... When you look for the bad, expecting it, you will get it. When you know you will find the good — you will get that.... Tell your son Tom you KNOW he'll be glad to fill that woodbox — then watch him start, alert and interested!

# Empire (Card novel)

Empire (2009) is a science fiction novel by Orson Scott Card. It is the first book of the The Empire duet, and is followed by Hidden Empire.

## Sourced

* Treason only matters when it is committed by trusted men.
** Chapter One: Captain Malich
* Protect your own force—that was a prime concern. But if it were the only priority, or the highest priority, nations would keep their armies at home and never commit them to battle at all.
* When do you first set foot on the ladder to greatness? Or on the slippery slope of treason? Do you know it at the time? Or do you discover it only looking back?
** Chapter Two: Recruitment
* Only a fool thinks the turns of history can be measured by any standard other than which wars were fought, and who won them. Survival of the fittest—that’s the measure of a civilization. And survival is determined on a battlefield. Where one man kills another, or dies, or runs away. The society whose citizens will stand and fight is the one with the best chance for history even to notice it.
* If you tell the same lies long enough and loudly enough, even people who know better will despair and concede the point. We are tribal animals. We cannot long stand against the tribe.
* Heroic love is to do what is best for the loved one, disregarding desire, trust, and cost. Unfortunately, it is impossible to know what is best for anyone.
** Chapter Three: New Boy
* In war planning, you must anticipate the actions of the enemy. Be careful lest your preventive measures teach the enemy which of his possible actions you most fear.
** Chapter: Tidal Basin
* War triggers human inventiveness at the most brilliant, because if you don't win your wars, your civilization disappears.
* While war is the ultimate expression of mistrust, it cannot be waged without absolute trust. A soldier trusts his comrades to stand beside him and his commander to lead him wisely, so that he will not be led to a meaningless death. And the commander trusts his subordinates and soldiers to act with wisdom and courage in order to compensate for his own ignorance, stupidity, incompetence, and fear, which all commanders possess in ample measure.
* There are hard wars and easy wars. It's easy to conquer a country whose people hate their own government more than they hate the invaders. It's hard to fight a war when your army knows that back home, their families are rooting for the other side.
* Being young is an eighteen-year prison sentence for a crime your parents committed. But you do get time off for good behavior.

# Employee engagement

Employee engagement is a property of the relationship between an organization and its employees. An "engaged employee" is defined as one who is fully absorbed by and enthusiastic about their work and so takes positive action to further the organization's reputation and interests.

## Quotes

* I defined personal engagement as the harnessing of organisation members' selves to their work roles; in engagement, people employ and express themselves physically, cognitively, and emotionally during role performances.
** William A. Kahn, "Psychological Conditions of Personal Engagement and Disengagement at Work." Academy of Management Journal. Dec 1990; 33, 4; ProQuest pg. 692
* Every piece of data suggests that workplaces are in dire shape and there is low levels of trust in leaders. For instance, data on employee engagement from Gallup show that worldwide only about 13% of employees report being engaged with their work, and in the U.S., the number is barely higher at 20%. Job satisfaction has declined almost linearly since 1987 to the present. The Edelman Trust index indicates that the public at large has low trust in leaders, while other surveys show that employees do not expect their own leaders to make ethical decisions or to consistently tell them the truth about difficult situations.
