t’s not just what’s being said that matters; it’s how it’s being said. I could say Walter has a really big head, but that would be quickly forgotten. But if I said Walter had a head as big as a Texas sky, that detail would be less likely to be forgotten. This lesson should be taught first along with the lesson that people have to be reminded of common things to keep them in the forefront of their minds. Teaching the Classics helps to reinforce the basics of civil human life. Also, writing about the Classics is a must, because it helps to teach students how to communicate ideas and learn how to write.
