“What I want to tell you today is not to move into that world where you're alone with yourself and your mantra and your fitness program or whatever it is that you might use to try to control the world by closing it out. I want to tell you just to live in the mess.
Throw yourself out into the convulsions of the world. I'm not telling you to make the world better, because I don't believe progress is necessarily part of the package. I'm telling you to live in it. Try and get it. Take chances, make your own work, take pride in it.

Who are the best people in the industry? ⭐️

One thing I don't think people realize about urban jobs: Universities are the biggest non-government employers in 2/3 of American cities! This includes ones you don't expect: Atlanta's biggest employer is Emory, Philadelphia's is Penn, LA is UCLA, etc. Same with 8 states overall!
