Wanderlust is incurable.
Maps encourage boldness. They’re like cryptic love letters. They make anything seem possible.
Maps are essential. Planning a journey without a map is like building a house without drawings.
Interfacing street sculpture in public space creates an installation environment that turns regular space into art space. Signs and people and everything around a street sculpture-they all become part of it. A two-dimensional work, being confined to surfaces, doesn’t have as much of a capacity.
Give your kids responsibility. Once outside, let them lead, who cares if you get lost; it might be the best trip you’ve ever had.
Kids are natural little outdoor people. It is we, the adults, who turn them into indoor people. If you don’t get of fyour computer, why should they?
Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white.
In the soil of fear are planted the seeds of deception.
