1/4/09 Weirdness

“We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."

10/19/08 Maine Democrats are Very Creative

This quote is visual . . . you gotta see it. "Change starts with me
in Maine." Get it? ME = Maine? Change . . . looking in a new
direction? Oh there's so much more. Very clever, very clever.

9/23/08 How you teach

I remembered something they have said at Harvard for a long time:

"How you teach is what you teach."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From the same email from the same listserv as the other great quote
from today. Yet more resources to track down. But take in this simple
idea. It's not unlike "You are what you eat" which I've always
expanded to include "You are what you read," "You are what you watch
on TV or in the movies," "You are who you hang out with," etc. There
is a richness to this concept.
