Johnson & Orders: Outside the Box

S1 Episode 14: "You Gotta Look Outside Your Eyes"


Listen Later

The good news -- and the bad news -- is that we are condemned to be free. Free to interpret our world in a way that gives our lives meaning. What you see when you look out at the world around you, and how do you choose to interpret it, makes all the difference.
"The really important kind of freedom involves attention, and awareness, and discipline, and effort, and being able truly to care about other people and to sacrifice for them, over and over, in myriad petty little unsexy ways, every day. That is real freedom. "
-David Foster Wallace, May 2005 ("Kenyon Commencement Speech," a.k.a "This is Water")
