The number one goal of teachers should be to help students learn how to learn.

You will need to find your passion. Don't give up on finding it because then all you're doing is waiting for the Reaper.

The great thing about working out at a gym is that if you put in effort, you get very obvious results. The same should be true of college. A professor’s job is to teach students how to see their minds growing in the same way they can see their muscles grow when they look in a mirror.

When you're screwing up and nobody says anything to you anymore, that means they've given up on you.

If she doesn't really love you, then it's over. And if she does love you, then love will win out.

If you want something bad enough, never give up (and take a boost when offered).

When you see yourself doing something badly and nobody's bothering to tell you anymore, that's a very bad place to be. Your critics are the ones telling you they still love you and care.
