Este declaratia lui Ted Turner, binecunoscutul fondator CNN, cu prilejul Social Good Summit. Nu m-a miscat declaratia lui, imi pot imagina viata fara presa scrisa. Deja o traiesc. Saptamana trecuta am primit Bussiness Woman, prima revista pe care am pus mana anul acesta. In schimb nu-mi imaginez inca viata fara carti si fara scrisul de mana.
Social Good Summit cuprinde o serie de evenimente unde lideri din intreaga lume se reunesc pentru a discuta noi modalitati de a schimba lumea prin new media. Anul acesta echipa de la Mashable i-a avut ca invitati pe: Ted Turner, Elie Wiesel, laureat al premiului Nobel si supravietuitor al Holocaustului, lideri din Africa, actorii Geena Davis, Richard Gere si Edward Norton.
Cateva lucruri interesante care m-au pus pe ganduri:
“If every young person pursued their greatest passion and then said, ‘What part of this can be applied to social good?’ You don’t have to choose between being successful and being a philanthropist.”– Monique Coleman
“There are many ways to prescribe happiness but there is one way that is available to everybody, it’s not very expensive … it’s very democratic, and everyone has acesss to it. It is: Find someone who needs help and help him for no ulterior motive.” — Yossi Vardi
“Human beings all change. Not what they are but who they are. We have the power to change what we do with our life and turn it into our destiny.”— Elie Wiesel
Wealth Formula: Early to bed, early to rise, work hard and advertise. Ted Turner
Margarita Cedeno de Fernandez, First Lady of the Dominican Republic: ”Technology is a way for the government to engage with developing poor communities as well as empower women and spread literacy. Let me say goodbye to you now, and you will always be in my heart and my iPad.”
