I am simpler and more human in a setting where simplicity and the sacred human gesture are norms rather than exceptions.
~ Dennis Leder in "Presence," Vol. 1, No. 2, May, 1995
A Voice not daunted by "You Can't do that!"
A voice lighting fires for children
Whose spark of hope
Is fast sputtering out
A voice that saw the gift in each
And opened the door to winds of change
That ignited the dormant creative possibilities in each
And gave them the vision, power and will to transform
The world.
