Everyone will tell you how rigid I am, but a teacher has to be flexible. You can't cut the student to your cloth; you have to cut yourself to theirs. ↗

It was my study of the two Corinthian letters that first caused me to concentrate my attention more directly on the relation of the apostle Paul to the older apostles. ↗

I'm less desperate now to express what's inside me, that's true - I act these days because it keeps me awake and interested, an eternal student. ↗
