A Quick Break from Lesson Planning

In the midst of planning for my next week (how will I endure a five-day week?!?), I started looking for a George Orwell quote that I recalled about being enslaved to enslaving others. So I headed to the internet and was sidetracked instead by his other quotes:

Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.

Sometimes the first duty of intelligent men is the restatement of the obvious.

Comments? I am just laughing at how true these are.
