Teachers who believe they can make a real difference in their students lives REALLY do.

Schools that cannot tolerate interesting & enthusiastic eccentrics who work better alone than together are devoid of flexibility & spirit

Schools often get the teachers they deserve!

There is no algorithm for creativity.

Evaluation schemes that implicate 100% of the staff to detect a small % of incompetents are a waste of time.

We need standards with flexibility, not standardization with force if we are to get the best from our teachers.

There is no morality without temptation; otherwise it is just lack of opportunity.
