The key idea is that if you can improve intelligence even a little, the process accelerates. It's a tipping point. Like trying to balance a pen on one end - as soon as it tilts even a little, it quickly falls the rest of the way.”
“I'm not going to be hardened by these people, to these things, I'm not going to let them destroy my feelings or my emotions.”
