Additional Information:
This quote is from Navy Admiral James Stavridis's 2012 TED Talk about security in the 21st Century. The quote describes Stavridis's theory of "open source security" -- that global conflicts are best solved/prevented by increasing communication and exchange, rather than by trying to shut out our rivals, as we did figuratively and literally during the Cold War with "wall"-type solutions like the Berlin Wall.
