Dr. Meers,
In reading the information, it brought to mind a quote from Yul Brenner, when he was performing the "King and I." A reporter asked to interview him, but was told he was busy rehearsing his lines. Later when the reporter was able to speak with Mr. Brenner, he asked him why he rehearsed so frequently. Mr. Brenner's reply was, "Because I want my character to be perfect. It is the least I owe my audience." I often think about the quote and the effort he put forth to perfect his craft. We teachers owe our students nothing less than perfect.
