"Consider the lighthouse. It stands on the shore with a beckoning light, guiding ships safely into harbor. The ship can't uproot itself, wade out into the water, grab the ship by the stern and say, "Listen you fool, if you stay on this path you may break up on the rocks.
No, the ship has some responsibility for it's own destiny. It can choose to be guided by the lighthouse. Or it can go it's own way. The lighthouse is not responsible for the ship's decisions. All it can do is be the best lighthouse it can be."
