Robert Murray M'CheyneCreating a high-functioning education system requires all the strategies involved in building high-functioning organisations anywhere. It requires a deliberate and aggressive strategy to ensure extraordinary talent at every level of the system, from the superintendentcy to district offices to principalships to classrooms. It requires building systems for accountability; offering parents the ability to choose their public schools is the ultimate form of this. It requires building a strong culture at the system and school levels based on high expectations for student achievement.

Half an hour of prayer, morning or evening, every day, may be a greater element in shaping our course than all our conduct and all our thought.

Ralph Waldo EmersonAs with the bud, so with the blossom. A boy is the only thing known from which a man can be made.

Samuel SmilesStudies of people who report high well-being in their fifties and sixties indicate that they have lived lives that involved personal risks. They are not people whose lives have been calm and predictable. A life under tight control sometimes produces quiet desperation. High well-being is a life that has depth and quality. Risks, losses, problems, and tragedy add pain to a life. That pain becomes a teacher. We learn; the pain gives us no choice.

So then we find out, "Well, this works because there's certain regimes we've never tested it in." Had we done so, we would show that it didn't work: For example, at very high speeds, very high gravity, Newton's laws fail. They just fail. You need Einstein's laws of motion and gravity. Those would be his special theory of relativity and general theory of relativity. Now you invoke those and it works.
Neil deGrasse TysonI actually think the reason I am interested in certain parts is because I was such a dweeb in high school.

That vulnerability is completely permanent and, as an actor, it's a good thing.

Donald TrumpImagine a pantomime directed by Quentin Tarantino, where villains are booed, heroes are blood-stained, the body-count is high, the entertainment pulsating, the language filthy and the audience screamed behind you'' as tackles hurtled in like boulders crashing down a mountain-side.

This was the Premier League at its raw, mistake-filled, mesmerising best. Utterly compelling.
