Best sentence from the most recent stack of essays (Juniors in high school):
"Personally I believe people loyal to the church were bewildered and
felt double-crossed which drove the laity straight into the arms of
thinking for themselves and coming to their own conclusions, rather
than the Bible making their own conclusions for them."
------
This is even better --
"European men and women were inspired by the growing freedom that
allowed them to express their imaginations without conviction."
I can hardly type it . . . . I guess I should take a break from grading
