“The Great Society is a place where every child
can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents. It is a place
where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of
commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community. It is a place
where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity
of their goods” (thinkexist.com).

Ayonie,
ReplyDeleteI agree with the quote by Lyndon B Johnson. It is necessary to provide every opportunity for growth and success. However, we can't stop there. We have to also provide appropriate resources, tools, and communication to foster that growth and success.
