I will make an average man into an average dancer, provided he be passably well made. I will teach him how to move his arms and legs, to turn his head.

Measuring success in cultural diplomacy - the use of education, creative expression in any form, or people-to-people exchange to increase understanding across regions, cultures, or peoples - is challenging.
