I give lectures on globalization. I have lived on three continents. I have no quarrel with a global consciousness.

My feeling is that if you can make a big impact on the global literacy problem, you can uplift a big portion of society.

My perspective is cultural and world-based. It's always been a global perspective.

One of the most important lessons we can glean from the environmental movement is to 'think globally and act locally.'

I'm fascinated by the emergence of a global class. They're highly mobile; they reject the idea of place.

I consider the world, this Earth, to be like a school, and our life the classrooms.

I believe that if we want our children to understand the world beyond their classroom, we must bring the world into their classroom.

I believe primary and secondary education is the bedrock of any sustainable society.

I've lived all over Europe, spent a lot of time in London, went to school in Scotland, college in America, so I do think I have sort of a sensibility on a fairly global level.

In the globalized world that is ours, maybe we are moving towards a global village, but that global village brings in a lot of different people, a lot of different ideas, lots of different backgrounds, lots of different aspirations.
