  40. “But abundance has also produced an ironic result: The very triumph of L-Directed Thinking has lessened its significance. The prosperity it has unleashed has placed a premium on things that appeal to less rational, more R-Directed sensibilities—beauty, spirituality, emotion.” —Dan Pink,A Whole New Mind

  44. “The MFA is the new MBA.”—Dan Pink, A Whole New Mind

  45. “What does this mean for you and me? How can we prepare for the conceptual age? On one level, the answer is straightforward. In a world tossed by Abundance, Asia and Automation, in a which L-Directed Thinking remains necessary but no longer sufficient, we must become proficient in R-Directed Thinking and master aptitudes that are ‘high concept’ and ‘high touch.’ But on another level, that answer is inadequate. What exactly are we supposed to do?” —Dan Pink, A Whole New Mind
