Education is the miracle; I'm just the worker.

It is not enough these days to simply QUESTION AUTHORITY. You have to speak with it, too.

Certainly teachers themselves can do a better job of letting the world know how hard their profession is, but frankly, they have real work to do and a lot of it, so they don't have a whole lot of free time on their hands.

The best teachers that I had were always the ones I never wanted to disappoint.

Simply put, the best teachers are the ones you work your tail off for because in the end you just don't want them to think any less of you. You want and need their approval.

Teachers shouldn't make the mistake of always thinking they're the smartest person in the room

Great teachers will never be able to make up for bad parents, nor should they be expected to.
