You can acquire a lot of knowledge without ever going to school.

The faster you go, the more students you leave behind. It doesn't matter how much or how fast you teach. The true measure is how much students have learned.

In a Glasser Quality School there is no such thing as a closed book test. Students are told to get out their notes and open their books. There is no such thing as being forbidden to ask the teacher or another student for help.

Unlike the weak, the strong neither give up nor are driven by pain into rash or stupid behavior. They don't like pain any more than anyone else, but they are not willing to settle for short-term relief if it means reducing their options later. They don't rob Peter to pay Paul, they face reality now.

When we label anyone 'bad', we will have more trouble dealing with him than if we could have settled for a lesser label.

I think education is both using and improving knowledge and that changes the whole picture.

We may be up against a stone wall, but we don't have to bloody our heads against it unless we choose to.
