"No hard feelings, the truth, and nothing but the truth, I think one should do good because you want to do good, not because you expect to get it back.

"Eventually, your pathway might align for a while, and in due time, people might have to go on their own walkways, and we should learn to be comfortable with that. No one wants to serve anyone for the rest of their lives. I would instead encourage equal rights to creative decisions, regular contract reviews, and freedom."
