You won't catch me giving clear lectures.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Then there are the people who know me from the lectures. What I am really trying to do, what I need to accomplish at this time, is to fill in the gaps.
People don't listen when you lecture. No one wants to be talked down to or scolded.
A lecture is an occasion when you numb one end to benefit the other.
I never lecture, not because I am shy or a bad speaker, but simply because I detest the sort of people who go to lectures and don't want to meet them.
This is unusual for me. I have given readings and not lectures. I have told people who ask for lectures that I have no lecture to give. And that is true.
I will not expose the ignorance of the faculty.
You aren't learning anything when you're talking.
I never quite know if what I do will be understood.
Professors simply can't discuss a thing. Habit compels them to deliver a lecture.
Things are not quite what they seem always. Don't start me on class, otherwise you'll get a four-hour lecture.
