Be pretty fun to say that to a bunch of students one day.  And even more fun to have them show up years later with stories to tell.

And I also love the implication that every student can escape the limitations of her teacher's imagination.  I think it's truth.  And good news.  And something to remember not to forget.

Thank you Mark C. Taylor, chairman of the Religion Department at Columbia University, for writing this article and including that quote.
