• For years, the following quote has been displayed above the desk in IPDG Dr. Bonita Lowrie's study:
"Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit."
..Arisotle
