2008 Edition
- "For the speakers it has become more than a junket, it is a chance to retreat, reflect, and cross-pollinate their ideas. This has a wonderful effect on the audience, because it inspires them and they find the speakers more accessible in this, well, euphoric state. The theme of the conference was transformation, and one gets the feeling that the speakers took the theme very personally to explain their quests and challenge others to find their own"

Famous quotes containing the word edition:
“I knew a gentleman who was so good a manager of his time that he would not even lose that small portion of it which the calls of nature obliged him to pass in the necessary-house, but gradually went through all the Latin poets in those moments. He bought, for example, a common edition of Horace, of which he tore off gradually a couple of pages, read them first, and then sent them down as a sacrifice to Cloacina: this was so much time fairly gained.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
