The idea of capitalism is not just success but also the failure that allows success to happen.

Capital isn't that important in business. Experience isn't that important. You can get both of these things. What is important is ideas.

We are now heading down a centuries-long path toward increasing the productivity of our natural capital - the resource systems upon which we depend to live - instead of our human capital.

In a finite world this means that the per capita share of the world's goods must steadily decrease.

After all sustainability means running the global environment - Earth Inc. - like a corporation: with depreciation amortization and maintenance accounts. In other words keeping the asset whole rather than undermining your natural capital.

Education technology and school construction go together. Modernization updating education facilities and making a capital investment in education are all included.

One of the factors a country's economy depends on is human capital. If you don't provide women with adequate access to healthcare education and employment you lose at least half of your potential. So gender equality and women's empowerment bring huge economic benefits.

Capitalism would have never let me be a filmmaker living in Flint Michigan with a high school education. I was going to have to make that happen myself.

When the students are occupied they're not juvenile delinquents. I believe that education is a capital investment.

Everything that everyone is afraid of has already happened: The fragility of capitalism which we don't want to admit the loss of the empire of the United States and American exceptionalism. In fact American exceptionalism is that we are exceptionally backward in about fifteen different categories from education to infrastructure.
