99% of the time I am grateful when I realize the replies being turned off saved me from
shooting off my mouth in an unwise fashion. What I have to say is usually not as important as my lack of Impulse Control tells me it is

I refused to navigate away from this page until I was able to read it all in short bursts through the work day. What an oasis and a treasure of an interview. Thank you both so much for your scholarship, and this interview is so beautiful - I don’t have words yet.

I have had many discussions where I feel even firmer in my convictions than I did beforehand but maybe I can explain them better, or maybe I just enjoyed hearing another perspective, but I am not persuaded.
