"A people, as a people, has nothing to defend.  In the same way, a people has nothing and no one to attack.  One cannot be free by oppressing another.  My freedom does not depend upon your loss of freedom.  On the contrary, since freedom is never freedom from society, but freedom for it, my freedom inherently affirms yours.  A people has no enemies."

Quote

There are at least two kinds of games.
One could be called finite, the other infinite.

The finite game is played for the purpose of winning,
an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play,
...and bringing as many persons as possible into the play.

Finite players play within boundaries;
infinite players play with boundaries.
