Words, like eyeglasses, blur everything they do not make clear.
- Joseph Joubert

Assignment: Today, practice saying only what is necessary - and kind!

Joseph Joubert (7 May 1754 in Montignac, Périgord – 4 May 1824 in Paris) was a French moralist and essayist, remembered today largely for his Pensées (Thoughts), which was published posthumously. From the age of fourteen Joubert attended a religious college in Toulouse, where he later taught until 1776. In 1778 he went to Paris where he met D'Alembert and Diderot, amongst others, and later became friends with a young writer and diplomat, Chateaubriand...

Other quotes:
To teach is to learn twice.
All gardeners live in beautiful places because they make them so.
Justice is the truth in action.
Ask the young. They know everything.
The mind's direction is more important than its progress.
Imagination is the eye of the soul.
Never cut what you can untie.
