"Students arrived with flowers and I was embarrassingly empty-handed. In a few minutes at least a dozen students asked me where my flowers were and insisted that I needed flowers to participate. I didn't know what to do. Well, a few students began donating flowers to me and, before long, I found myself with more flowers than anyone else." David Carozza - Teach English in Moldova
