~ Xenophon
You know that neither numbers nor strength give the victory, but that side which, with the assistance of the gods, attacks with the greatest resolution is generally irresistible.
~ Xenophon
I will venture to maintain that where the teacher is not pleasing to the pupil, there is no education.
~ Xenophon
