And whether or not the educators who are trying to raise up America's students can actually set and meet higher academic standards, our cultural values make their job next to impossible.

It's so much easier for parents to blame teachers when their kids get in trouble than to do the heavy lifting required at home to keep kids on track. And it's so much easier for us as a nation to cross our fingers and hope that we'll "get lucky" with the innovative "solutions" being tested on America's schools today than it is for us to roll up our sleeves and invest our own time, talent, and money in the schools that are even now-- with or without us-- shaping our nation's future. ↗

Whoever loves becomes humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism. ↗

Big comedy is good, I like things that are big, but good comedy has to be truthful I think and has to reflect some sort of reality. ↗
