Or maybe it doesn't, and you lose. (Match ...Expand for more
Point)
To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. (Ecclesiastes)
Nature's first green is gold. Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief. So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. (Robert Frost and quoted in The Outsiders)
Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born. (Anais Nin)
This is a great discovery, education is politics! When a teacher discovers that he or she is a politician too, the teacher has to ask, âWhat kind of politics am I doing in the classroom? That is, in favor of whom am I being a teacher?â The teacher works in favor of something and against something. (Paulo Freire, A Pedagogy for Liberation)
First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist...Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me. (Pastor Martin Niemoller-1934 Nazi Germany)
Sex without poetry, research without philosophy all too easily may become perversity~(Scarlet Chopin)
Dancing in all its forms cannot be excluded from the curriculum of all noble education; dancing with the feet, with ideas, with words, and, need I add that one must also be able to dance with the pen?
Friedrich Nietzsche".
