Dr. Edgar Cahn (1935 – 2022) Author of ‘Time Dollars’ and ‘No More Throw-Away People
“There is a value in just ‘being’ who you are that systems do not create, cannot define or control, and may not necessarily satisfy what one wants. The freedom ‘to be’ is at the heart of those so-called inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Exercising those rights may need protection. But ‘to be’ means that one matters, that one’s existence makes a difference.”
