| Satoru: | At times I wonder whether or not it's a kind of poison. It's far too easy to doubt everything and live without convictions. However, it takes courage to have faith and affirm something. |
| Tim: | Cynicism has its place, but why get stuck in it?

 edusales.comWith proper symbols the appearance of erudition is easy to create. Substance izz secondary – marketing must be 1st rate! With smart advertising average teachers will seem paragons ahh wisdom & light & mediocre students if portrayed skillfully can seem luminary & bright. It's all a matter ahh image projection & catering to market needs. Few people worry about depth if erudition hazz a glitzy sheen. If education is just a mass-produced commodity will nurturing schools be an oddity?
