“Participating in the filling of others' brains with knowledge and know-how is just an extraordinary gift only very few have. Hence, teaching a language is indeed opening these brains to the world with its similarities and dissimilarities taught in different words.”
Messaoud Mohammed

Romain Gary
“It’s too pragmatic for me,” Valenti said. “The know-how is good enough for technology, not for science.”
Romain Gary, The Gasp
