"We’re all just walking each other home"
About this Quote
“Each other home” lands with a soft thud of mortality. Home can be comfort, community, belonging; it can also be the final stop. Bartlett doesn’t specify which, and that ambiguity is the point. The phrase smuggles in an ethical instruction: if the destination is ultimately the same for everyone, the only meaningful variable is how we treat one another on the way there. That subtext reads like a gentle rebuke to the winner-take-all mythology that entrepreneurship can accidentally amplify.
Context matters: coming from a young entrepreneur, it’s not the usual “grind harder” slogan. It’s a rebrand of success as relational rather than purely financial. The line works because it’s disarmingly simple, almost childlike, yet it carries a communal politics without sounding political. It invites solidarity without demanding ideology. In a culture trained to optimize, it proposes something harder to quantify: presence.
