어느 수요일 오후 고등학교 복도를 걷고 있었어요. 혼자 뭔 생각을 했던 것 같은데 거기에 미술 선생님이 계셨죠. 정말 크고 오래된 도자기 그릇을 만들고 계시더군요. 미술실 문을 들여다 보고 있었는데 진흙 작업이란 게 꼭 마술같죠. 살면서 전에는 그런 걸 본 적이 없었거든요.
And on a Wednesday afternoon, I was walking down the corridor of my high school kind of minding my own business. And there was this artist teaching, who made a great big old ceramic vessel, and I happened to be looking in the door of the art room -- and if you've ever seen clay done, it's magic -- and I'd never seen anything like that before in my life.
