Mr. French, I remember that at one point in time you said that you could never end a sentence with the word “to”. I’m writing an essay and I’ve ended a couple of sentences with the word “to”. I am very confused because to me they make perfect sense. For example: “The best lessons are learned from those you look up to.” Does the rule only apply to certain situations?? I am very confused because I am almost 100% positive that I’m right, but then again, I may not be.

Why wouldn’t you say, “The best lessons are learned from those you admire”? Or, you could say, “Those you look up to provide the best lessons.” It is just not good to end sentences in prepositions. People do it. It can just be better said.
