Thought for the Day
Aug. 30, 2009 – sent to all my fellow teachers:
This was the Thought for Today on the Word.a.day emailed to me.
Thought it apropos for teachers and emailed to my peers.
A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
What you cannot enforce, do not command.
-Sophocles, dramatist (495?-406 BCE)
***********************************************
I got a few responses, such as “Amen”, or “I really like this,
thank you.”
Following is an email conversation between myself and
someone who I would say is our most political thinker,
“Tom”.
****************************************************
T - Eerily suggestive of our border policy.
******************************************************
V - Interesting connection. With the border policy I have to say that
my attention is focused on the environmental
damage the fence has done, destroying habitat and animal corridors.
******************************************************
T - What kind of animals? Not the human kind?
*************************************************
V - No, not human corridors. I'm not worried about the demise of
human beings. In fact, I'm worried about the proliferation of
homo sapiens.
