When you have a special teacher, the learning never stops.
Children are the living messages
we send to a time we will not see.
~ John W. Whitehead
God’s most beautiful thoughts bloom into children.
A teacher affects eternity;
he can never tell where his influence stops.
~ Henry Brooks Adams
It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy
in creative expression and knowledge.
~ Albert Einstein
The job of a teacher is to excite in the young
a boundless sense of curiosity about life,
so that the growing child shall come to apprehend it
with an excitement tempered by awe and wonder.
~ John Garrett
One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers,
but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary new material,
but the warmth is the vital element for the growing plant
and for the soul of the child.
~ Carl Jung
The fact that I can plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another's,
smile at someone and receive a smile in return,
are to me continual spiritual exercises.
~ Leo Buscaglia
If children
are to keep alive
their inborn sense
of wonder, they need
the companionship of at least one adult
who can share it, rediscovering
with them the joy, excitement,
and mystery of the world we live in.
~ Rachel Carson
