....to think about the gifts and presents we buy. They provide a great example - We want them to be pristine. If the box or the packaging is battered, we feel that it does not make an appropriate offering - even though we know that within moments of handing it over those bits of card and plastic will be consigned to the rubbish. We want the wrapping paper to look right too, yet it is the very first thing to be removed and discarded.
We should always take care not to value presentation more highly than content.
The purpose of learning is growth, and our minds, unlike our bodies, can continue growing
as long as we live. (Mortimer Adler)
