ISB- place to be

This is my first post about ISB and I am really trying to think about a quote which will epitomise this place. Should it be 'survival of the fittest' or the 'ultimate Business school'?
Its seems to be a great place with probably the finest professors and peer group that you could find.
But then sometimes you can overdo it. Sometimes you do get the feeling that ISB is really just a subset of the 'big bad corporate' world and maybe as an academic institution it should be more than that.
You see an academic institution even one that teaches Business needs to be more than just a glorified recruitment exchange. I feel that we as a batch are capable of much more if only we realise what we can do we probably can. So here's my quote for this post, from the poem by Robert Frost,
"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."
