“Don’t be afraid to be a fool. Remember, you cannot be both young and wise. Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don’t learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say no. But saying yes begins things. Saying yes is how things grow. Saying yes leads to knowledge. “Yes” is for young people. So for as long as you have the strength to, say yes.”

An e-mail from the President of Ohio State:
Valentine’s Day is traditionally a day for declaring one’s
affections, and so I send this note to let you know how much I
appreciate each and every one of you. Our numerous campuses create one
University with a huge heart, and I see evidence of your caring at every
turn…….And now, I issue a challenge: Smile. Even if you are having the worst
day ever. I guarantee that it will lift your mood, people will smile
back, and eventually your day will not seem so challenging. Just try it.Happy Valentine’s Day!

Have I ever even received an e-mail from President Fisher? I mean other than the ones desperately trying to prove that he in fact cherishes lesbianism? Hmm…
