"Youth instinctively understand the present environment -- the electric drama. It lives mythically and in depth." Marshall McLuhan.

"One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words." Goethe

And from a little book in my granny's powder room: "The greatest oak was once a little nut that held its ground."

Here's another quote that I find relevant to education.

"I don't want many things,
Just a chance to spread my wings.
I don't know what the future brings,
but I want to be there."

This is from the British progressive rock band, Threshold. Its in the middle of the song Phenomenon, on the album Critical Mass.
I think that this represents the dreams and hopes of our students towards their future.

I've always loved "The more you say the less the better." Think about that one for a minute - might take a little pondering to truly appreciate it? The source? The old Talking Moose, from way back in the Mac days, of course. ;)

Just some fun for you on a cold Saturday evening. ;)
