- Charles William Eliot

Aim for success, not


perfection. Never give up your
right to be wrong, because then
you will lose the ability to learn
new things and move forward
with your life. Remember that
fear always lurks behind
perfectionism.
-Dr. David M. Burns



Ideal teachers are those
who use themselves as
bridges over which they
invite their students to
cross, then having
facilitated their
crossing, joyfully
collapse, encouraging
them to create bridges
of their own.
-Nikos Kazantzakis
Teachers open
the door, but
you must enter
by yourself."
-Chinese Proverb




The greatest sign of a
success for a
teacheris to be able to
say, "The children are
now working as if I did
not exist."
-Maria Montessori:
