Excellence of mind itself, rightly conceived, is expertise in beauty; creativity is wise love.

True teachers not only impart knowledge and method but awaken the love of learning by their own reflected love.

This sense of beauty unlocks feelings of pleasure and love and breaks down the barrier between worker and work and commit to work not merely the "thinking" consciousness but the full resources of mind.

The happy individual is able to renew daily and with full consciousness all the basic expressions of human identity: work, love, communication, play, and rest.

The fundamental motive of true teaching is the love that seeks and studies and performs.
