Weekend Ed. Quote ~ October 4

Nobody can discover the world for anybody else. It is only after we have discovered it for ourselves that it becomes a common ground and a common bond, and we cease to be alone.

~ Wendell Berry

Paul Annacone, professional tennis player, coach, commentator during a September 21, 2019 telecast of the Laver Cup, [Tennis Channel]. 
The quote become even more applicable if the word “players” is switched out with the word “teachers.”
