"A certain wise man, when asked concerning the method and form of study, declared: a humble mind, eagerness to inquire, a quiet life, silent scrutiny, poverty, a foreign soil. These, for many, unlock the secret places of learning."
– Hugh of St. Victor, Didascalicon 3.13

Stop by the office today & pick up this month's Cultura! and listen to this week's Monday Meal on The Oaks app.
