I came across this quote the other day courtesy of @youquotedquotes via Twitter:
Dream no small dreams, for they have no power to stir the souls of men.
-Victor Hugo
I would say this is right in line with our thinking. In the early stages of our trip, Sommer was joking around (as usual) and said, “Dream big or go home.” And that’s pretty much how we roll. There’s no point in stopping yourself from trying something because you’re not sure you can do it. Also, Sommer and I are journalists because we want to impact people and ideally present stories that act as a catalyst for positive change.

Victor Hugo is a brilliant man. Just the other day, I realized that one of my favorite songs “Talk to Strangers” by hip hop poet Saul Williams ends by referencing another Hugo quote: “There’s nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come.”
Love this Lindsey and thanks for pointing out @youquotedquotes. I’m a sucker for good quotes.
