What I know is that if I was asked to teach mathematics in French for a week to young kids, I would do my homework and I think I could do a decent job.

But one of the things I have learned during the time I have spent in the United States is an old African American saying: Each one, teach one.

God, teach me to be patient, teach me to go slow, Teach me how to wait on You when my way I do not know. Teach me sweet forbearance when things do not go right So I remain unruffled when others grow uptight. Teach me how to quiet my racing, rising heart So I might hear the answer You are trying to impart. Teach me to let go, dear God, and pray undisturbed until My heart is filled with inner peace and I learn to know your will.
I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous.

They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing.
