“To love. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power.”

Not sure why, but tonight I looked back at a piece I wrote some 20 or more years ago - a tribute to English teachers. It's all a bit 'Dead Poets Society', I suppose, but also, perhaps, a reminder of why English as a subject matters. And why its teachers do. www.geoffbarton.co.uk/files/englis...
