My Favourite 5 Seth Godin Quotes:

Two
“The internet was supposed to homogenize everyone by connecting us all. Instead what it’s allowed is silos of interest.”

Four
“Normal is fading away. Governments and industries and schools like normal because it’s easier… But people don’t like it – we want to be who we are, not who some marketer tells us to be.”
Five
“The tidal wave is overrated.
Yes, it can lead to wholesale destruction, but it’s the incessant (but much smaller) daily tidal force that moves boats world wide… We can definitely spend time worrying about/building the tsunami, but its’s the drip, drip, drip that will change everything in the long run.”
