That Goethe quote…

…seems not to be from Goethe at all.  That’s a pity, because I’ve used it here.

See here for an explanation.

But I still really like it.

So hats off to John Anster and W H Murray who seem to be the originators of this inspiring couplet.

Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it,
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.

Walking the Talk (an article I originally wrote for the environmentalist) looks at some ways that venues, practitioners and the meetings industry in the UK are trying to reduce their carbon footprint and tackle other environmental impacts.
