Teachers Quotes
-
Well, maybe it was just that I wasn't going to like anybody because I had to work and I had to explain to my teachers why I wasn't keeping up. I'd fall asleep and things in class and they'd lecture me about the reality of their classroom. I said, 'You want to see my reality?' I opened up my backpack to where you usually keep your pencils. That's where I kept my bills... electric bills, rent... That was my reality.

Day and night Balian studied Arabic, both the language of the street corner and the more formal prose of his oneiric teachers.

For "how shall they preach unless they are sent [Rom 10:15]?"
