Curt McCorkle
"My curiosity deepens each time the Teacher gives details of how 'words' were first formed. Starting from 'symbols' representing 'things' and later became 'words' and later the 'Aleph- bet ' emerged so that a single 'letter' punctuated with accents were included to differentiate 'sounds' Eg the 'fish-like' symbol over the centuries became the letter 'dalet'= ד Its amazing! Interesting lessons so far."
"Great Institute. With great support."
"Listen, learn, then do it. "
