Episode 9 - Ideas About Idealism

What is idealism? When is it a good thing? When is it a bad thing?

Quotes from this episode:

"We are not concerned with the very poor. They are unthinkable, and only to be approached by the statistician or the poet." - E.M. Forster, Howard's End

"Scratch the surface of most cynics and you find a frustrated idealist - someone who made the mistake of converting his ideals into expectations." - Peter Senge
