I was wrong: changing your mind, sentence 0
Last week I told the whole class, "Bulls go mad for red, I'd bet my life on it!" Then I read a zoo website: bulls can't even tell red from green; it's the movement.
Who acts: I, Bulls, website · What happens: tell, go, bet, read, not tell, be · To what, where: whole class, life, zoo website, red, green, movement · Speech: someone speaks here
