In all of my work I'm trying to create a dialogue, in which I want to provoke the recipients, stimulate them to use their own imaginations.

Our democracy, our constitutional framework is really a kind of software for harnessing the creativity and political imagination for all of our people. The American democratic system was an early political version of Napster. ↗

Our world faces a true planetary emergency. I know the phrase sounds shrill, and I know it's a challenge to the moral imagination. ↗

A child who has never fantasized about having other parents is seriously lacking in imagination. ↗
