I have discovered few learning disabled students in my three decades of teaching. I have, however, discovered many, many victims of teaching inabilities.

What all good teachers have in common, however, is that they set high standards for their students and do not settle for anything less.

Death cannot put the brakes on a good dream.

When our students fail, we, as teachers, too, have failed.

Once children learn how to learn, nothing is going to narrow their mind. The essence of teaching is to make learning contagious, to have one idea spark another.

I think what we've done is given children a lot of things that they didn't ask for instead of what they do want.

There isn't a certain time we should set aside to talk about God. God is part of our every waking moment
