Great Expectations

Not the Charles Dickens book, but what we should have for ourselves and our students.

Susan Wallace (2002) picks up a quote from Virgil which shows that we can achieve if we really believe it. It's been a long time since I've studied Latin, but I'll have a go at translating it for you.
"Possunt, quia posse videntur"

"They can because they think they can".
