You never know what motivates you.
I can, therefore I am.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Never complain and never explain.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Besides the actual reading in class of many poems, I would suggest you do two things: first, while teaching everything you can and keeping free of it, teach that poetry is a mode of discourse that differs from logical exposition.
