"Our horizon is the creation of a noble society to which, like the medieval builder of those glorious cathedrals, you will have added your conception, your artful piece of stone"

- Adrienne Clarkson

About this Quote

This quote by Adrienne Clarkson talks with the idea of cumulative initiative and the power of collaboration. It suggests that, similar to the home builders of medieval sanctuaries, we can collaborate to develop something stunning as well as enduring. The "worthy society" Clarkson mentions is a metaphor for a much better world, one that is improved the cumulative payments of people. The quote motivates us to think of our very own payments as pieces of a larger puzzle, as well as to recognize that our individual efforts can have a long-term influence. It is a suggestion that, when we collaborate, we can develop something above the amount of its components. By working together, we can construct a far better future for ourselves as well as for generations to find.
