@ ali: I knew you would pick up on this one section, “Michelangelo is often quoted as having said that inside every block of stone or marble dwells a beautiful statue; one need only remove the excess material to reveal the art of work within.” And your summation mirrors mine so well. That is what I get out of teaching. Being able to see my students the first day of class and know beyond a shadow of a doubt that by the end of the year, I will have seen a block of granite turn into the beautiful statue hidden within the gruff exterior.
