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:
“Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
