In 2005, author David Foster Wallace was asked to give the commencement address to the 2005 graduating class of Kenyon College. However, the resulting speech didn't become widely known until 3 years later, after his tragic death. It is, without a doubt, some of the best life advice we've ever come across, and perhaps the most simple and elegant explanation of the real value of education.
We made this video, built around an abridged version of the original audio recording, with the hopes that the core message of the speech could reach a wider audience who might not have otherwise been interested. However, we encourage everyone to seek out the full speech (because, in this case, the book is definitely better than the movie).
-The Glossary
This is a really great video that summarizes David foster wallace's speech "This Is Water". It describes what adults have to go through every day that kids have not yet gone through- day in day out activities in the world that EVERY fully grown adult has experienced. The minorities will soon have to do this as well...
That's good!
