Hi everyone,
I love the amazing wisdom and knowledge on the biofuels site. I
think the following first grader wisdom might be appreciated as
well, at least by my fellow teachers.
Marilyn
A first grade teacher had 25 students in her class and she
presented each child the first half of a well known proverb and
asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's
hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their
insight may surprise you. While reading, keep in mind that these
are first graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is classic!

"Behind the ostensible government sits
enthroned an invisible government owing no
allegiance and acknowledging no
responsibility to the people. To destroy this
invisible government, to befoul the unholy
alliance between corrupt business and
corrupt politics is the first task of the
statesmen of today."
President Theodore Roosevelt - 1906
Give me the money that has been spent in
war and I will clothe every man, woman, and
child in an attire of which kings and queens
will be proud. I will build a schoolhouse in
every valley over the whole earth. I will crown
every hillside with a place of worship
consecrated to peace:
Charles Sumner
