You Can't Separate The Message From The Messenger

Quintus Curtius

Some people think the only thing that matters is what a teacher or instructor says, not what their character is. I don't agree with this. In choosing a teacher or instructor, we have to remember that character and integrity are all-important. Nothing good can ever come from moral corruption, as Cicero has said. You have to look carefully at a man's track record, background, and conduct to get an accurate assessment of his character.
