Found while moving-- a piece of yellow paper with the following quote:
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered with failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that know not victory or defeat."
--Theodore Roosevelt
Something to ponder as we attempt to wrap our heads around a gazillion Greek paradigms...

That qoute has been one of the themes of my life (in my better moments at least) since I first read it several years ago. Thanks for the reminder.
i'm afraid i will face defeat in the morning while remembering that i dared to do it!!
Is that anything like...
Not somehow, but triumphantly?
Or... "it's better to burn out than fade away!"
Inspiring words, Ms. Kemp, in the midst of our dire struggle against the Greek language.
