Mr. Wonderful's Citation de la Semaine for July 11 goes to Noel Polk for this thought provoking statement:
"What I remember most poignantly about the Midas story from my childhood reading was that when Midas touched his daughter, she turned to gold too. But that king, unlike ours, understood what a mistake he had made in wishing to turn everything he touched to gold, and was sorrowful. Somewhere we have to teach our students that some things are more important than money."
