I think the quote is powerful and honest. I don't see why you would want to remove it from your teachings. Isn't the whole point of teaching to go back in time to where your understanding matched the current student's understanding, then proceed forward? Surely many students today share the sentiments you had 20 years ago. I still get that way sometimes, to lesser degrees than before, and I've been working non-stop for a decade to shake those very feelings. I think it's profound that you ever felt that way. Not something to shrink from.
