42 Ethics and Teaching Teachers by their very presence remind us how imperfect we must always be; perhaps, society actively resists that knowledge by attacking the teacher. As Thoreau says, “[W]here there is a lull of truth, an institution springs up” (365). We teachers work in those institutions, and we teachers are the libidinal cathexes for the insecurities and rage that rise out of not knowing.

He requested an extension on the paper that I had assigned.
