[The soul] knows on the other
hand of her immense indebtedness to God for having created her solely for

because he redeemed her solely for himself she owes him every response of
love. John of the Cross, Spiritual Canticle

"The
books were there, and to do my job, I didn't need anything else besides a
working air conditioner . . . Teaching is about presentation and
accountability; money and resources are secondary. The U.S. public school
education system has plenty of cash. What it lacks are competent, courageous
administrators and creative teachers. Yes, better salaries might attract
better people. But teaching is a calling, not a business." - Bill O'Reilly, A
Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity
