Quote from Placeholder Name
“Storytelling is just about the one behavior that you can trace back since there's been any kind of visible written word or visual word by the human race. It's what was painted on walls and caves. And it's what's really powered a culture and the imagination and making sense of the world. So I think it's so fundamental to how we work. We don't realize how important it is.”
