”…the most practical thing you can have is a good theory, a good concept to guide your behavior, to be used as an instrument to measure and test reality. A good theory organizes the world and organizes one’s approach to the world and permits one to be able to evaluate the world in terms of where one wants to go and what one wants to do.”
~ Dr. Amos Wilson
