"I think our students are the greatest source of inspiration. We learn from them a great deal more than we probably manage to teach them. In many ways, it's an amazing thing to be able to teach. It's a great responsibility, but it's also an enormous opportunity. And although I'm not teaching at the moment, that's why I'm missing it, I suppose. And that impulse, the desire that is there in teaching to talk to people, but also to listen to people is something that I never stop valuing and appreciating."
