Mem Fox quotes about
other-cultures giving appreciate
You experience other cultures to give you a kind of shock that makes you look at your own culture. You appreciate it more as a result of being out of it, but you also realise there are some things lacking in your culture.
wind church daily-life
I don't go to church much anymore, but Methodist values still wind me up and send me ticking into my daily life.
lonely fun teaching
You're not lonely when you're teaching, you're not quiet, you're laughing most of the time, you're having a wonderful time interacting with young people. It's the best fun in the world.
