The fact is, funnily enough, that the people who seem to be most committed to causes also seem to be least invested in anyone actually talking to each other.

I am interested in the interaction of a group of people who have a common goal, or a common obsession, each contributing something unique to make something greater than the sum of its parts. I don't know why, but from day one, that has interested me.
People have to deal with their issues together; they have to expose themselves and kind of exhaust themselves.
The worst thing is to get involved with people who aren't passionate about what they're doing.
Communication is so much better when people are vulnerable.
It's hard for us not to be involved with things. When you have so much information and you see so much need, there's too much going on for us not to get involved.
Most of the successful people I've known are the ones who do more listening than talking.
I've found that when everyone rallies behind a cause, and when they learn their effort can contribute something bigger, they get engaged.
The more connected that individual is to an issue they care about, the higher probability there is they will stay involved over a longer period of time.
When you're surrounded by people who share a passionate commitment around a common purpose, anything is possible.
I always found that if you handle a problem in a benevolent way and a transparent way and involve other people, so it's just not your personal opinion, that people get to the other side of these difficult conversations being more enthusiastic.
