Chapter 46 (cont'd)
J.P. was listening intently to Vincent, learning his curve, of learning.
When Vincent had gone down a list of historical places that he had visited in Israel, J.P. countered with, "Lux et veritas floreant!"
Vincent combed his mind for the phrase, "That is the motto of a University in my home city."
"Yes it is," J.P. replied. "Did you know that Christ Church, Oxford is a college as well as a cathedral?"
"I do know that is has produced many British prime ministers," a look of hesitancy combined with right honourable intentions combined on the young face to create a vulnerable knowledge.
"You've got to go to school to learn a little, to get out of school to learn a lot," J.P. chucked Vincent on the back good-naturedly.
"It sure has been a lot of work to learn a little," Vincent grinned with good humour.
"I can't imagine what it will be like to learn a lot."
J.P. smiled a mentor kindliness, "Learn from unexpected places, Vincent... like your trip to Israel."
