Callicles told Socrates the good life is appetite without limit — more, bigger, always. Socrates called that a leaky jar: pour in forever, it never fills. That was never what I wanted. I want to grow with my team and this college, because IT — in a place built around learning — is the work I'd choose anyway.
An empty boat can collide with yours and stir no anger — it's the man at the oars we curse. So I empty the boat: no ego to steer around, no one to blame, only the river and the work. — after Zhuangzi · 莊子, the empty vessel (虛舟)
