P̶o̶t̶e̶n̶t̶ ̶P̶o̶t̶a̶b̶l̶e̶s̶ Quotent Quotables:

And your words will be powerful.
I urge you, use your powers of communication for good.
Bring clarity to confusion.
Build consensus, not division.
Speak humbly when you know you are right and speak kindly when you know someone else is wrong.

Not to dig up old graves, stir up old flames, or wake up the dead. But...
Beside the regular range of emotions that come along with an announcement like that, I'm ashamed to say it but this whole Staten leaving ordeal for some sad reason blindingly reminded me of these specific recent posts here on DBO :(

Thanks Kerm, this video has provided the words, whereas my own were quietly filled with unjustness

In a strange coincidence of events this video happened to come up in the related videos section when I was watching that convocation on the Youtube. It has 7 "likes"
