Summary

This quote suggests the idea of reintroducing corporal punishment in schools, but with a twist - using it on the teachers instead of the students. While the intention behind this statement may be to depict a radical or exaggerated perspective, it highlights the need for balancing disciplinary measures within educational environments. It could serve as a provocative statement to spark a discussion on disciplining methods and how to create a supportive and effective learning environment for all parties involved.

It is a mass language only in the same sense that its baseball slang is born of baseball players. That is, it is a language which is being molded by writers to do delicate things and yet be within the grasp of superficially educated people. It is not a natural growth, much as its proletarian writers would like to think so. But compared with it at its best, English has reached the Alexandrian stage of formalism and decay.

You must realize that it is the ordinary way of God's dealings with us that our ideas do not work out speedily and efficiently as we would like them to. The reason for this is not only the loving wisdom of God, but also the fact that our acts have to fit into a great complex pattern that we cannot possibly understand. I have learned over the years that Providence is always a whole lot wiser than any of us, and that there are always not only good reasons, but the very best reasons for the delays and blocks that often seem to us so frustrating and absurd.
