- Finally got these excerpts from the Introduction to the Paperback Edition of The Fifth Discipline with these words I find so meaningful:
- "The Congress Hall is a room designed for conversation. One hundred and fifty people can carry on a conversation as if they were seated in a living room. [...] Clearly, the designers of that room understood that conversation and self-governance are inextricably linked. If we lose our ability to talk with one another, we lose our ability to govern ourselves."
