Classroom Talk: 7/14/2021 - Whoever lies... cries; and not just in that moment, but in every moment thereafter; as when, by fear, we feel compelled not just to defend some past self-compromising choice... but also because we continue to participate in an unconscious act that's not only set against our own best interests... but, ultimately, against the Good of all.

Classroom Talk: 4/24/2019 The more we resist -- and suffer over -- any moment that proves we don't possess the strength we imagine ourselves as having -- the further removed we are from recognizing the real healing lesson these moments bring with them: the realization that the source of this suffering -- over our alleged "weakness"...
