Education is the key to success in life, and teachers make a lasting impact in the lives of their students.
Take risks. Ask big questions. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes; if you don’t make mistakes, you’re not reaching far enough.
Aim for the sky and you’ll reach the ceiling. Aim for the ceiling and you’ll stay on the floor.
Live today. Not yesterday. Not tomorrow. Just today. Inhabit your moments. Don’t rent them out to tomorrow.
Receive the children in reverence, educate them in love, and send them forth in freedom.
Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility – these three forces are the very nerve of education.
Work Hard. Do your best. Keep your word. Never get too big for your britches. Trust in God. Have no fear; and Never forget a friend.
Anything can happen with hard work and dedication.
Infuse your life with action. Don’t wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope.
You are capable of more than you know. Choose a goal that seems right for you and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim high. Behave honorably. Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all you can give.
For the young, let me tell you the sky has turned brighter. There’s a glorious rainbow that beckons those with the spirit of adventure. And there are rich findings at the end of the rainbow. To the young and to the not-so-old, I say, look at that horizon, follow that rainbow, go ride it.
When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.
Education is the best weapon through which we can fight poverty, ignorance and terrorism.
Whoever our students may be, whatever the subject we teach, ultimately we teach who we are.
Diversity is about all of us, and about us having to figure out how to walk through this world together.
If you don’t pay appropriate attention to what has your attention, it will take more of your attention than it deserves.
Teachers are reservoirs from which, through the process of education, students draw the water of life.
The cultivation of Human Values alone is Education.
Bullying is not okay. Period.
Too often we forget that discipline really means to teach, not to punish. A disciple is a student, not a recipient of behavioural consequences.
