Searching for an ideal
I chose the following quotation for today’s Center for Teaching Excellence Management Group Agenda
We search in life for an ideal −for the highest ideal. Some may say – that is impossible. Human weakness and failure weigh us down and prevent us from achieving high standards. By why should we believe this. Why should we believe more in the weakness of the human mind than we believe in the strength of the human spirit. Why not strive for the highest ideal.
