Mantras By James:

• "Practice is the best of all instructors." - computation requires practice
• "An agreeable companion on a journey is as good as a carriage." - look to your classmates for help too
• "While we stop to think, we often miss our opportunity." - sometimes you need to take a leap of faith
• "When two do the same thing, it is not the same thing after all." - encourage students with similar ideas
• "The bow too tensely strung is easily broken." - don't get too stressed out
  • All of these are from Plubius Syrus.(42 B.C.)
