Id rather see a sermon than hear one any day . .
. Id rather one should walk with me than merely
show the way. The eye is a better pupil and
more willing than the ear. Fine counsel is
confusing, but examples always clear.

I soon can learn to do it, if youll let me see
it done. I can see your hands in action, but
your tongue too fast may run. And the lectures
you deliver may be very fine and true, but Id
rather get a lesson by observing what you do.
