Teacher Quotes

Every writer I admire is my teacher. If you look at it, and if you care to read carefully enough and to read and reread a text, you teach yourself something about craft Picture Quote #1

Just as experience dictates to the ballet teacher the length of time necessary to train his students, so the horse, too, needs time to mature into a great four legged dancer. This fact cannot be obliterated by seeming successes that supposedly prove the opposite. For, even if someone should succeed in training a horse to high school level by the age of eight, this individual occurrence cannot shake the foundations of the classical art of riding, if this dressage horse is completely unsound and unusable by the age of ten Picture Quote #1

I am a teacher at heart. My goal is to inspire and energize audiences with ideas and possibilities that will challenge them to expand their perceptions of teaching and learning and dare to consider our professional future with optimism and excitement Picture Quote #1

It’s not the job of the teacher to save a child’s soul; it is the teacher’s job to provide an opportunity for the child to save his own soul Picture Quote #1

All genuine learning is active, not passive. It involves the use of the mind, not just the memory. It is a process of discovery, in which the student is the main agent, not the teacher Picture Quote #1

You will become a teacher of yourself when for the same things that you blame others, you also blame yourself Picture Quote #1

Teaching is a sacred art. This is why the noblest druid is not the one who conjures fires and smoke but the one who brings the news and passes on the histories. The teacher, the bard, the singer of tales is a freer of men’s minds and bodies, especially when he roams without allegiance to one chieftain or another. But he is also a danger to the masters if he insists upon telling the truth. The truth will inevitably cause tremors in those who cling to power without honoring justice Picture Quote #1

Genius is the basis for the deepest type of mentoring. When true learning occurs genius teaches genius and both the teacher and the student grow Picture Quote #1

The good teacher discovers the natural gifts of his pupils and liberates them by the stimulating influence of the inspiration that he can impart. The true leader makes his followers twice the men they were before Picture Quote #1

To me dogs are not the students, not the ones that need training. To me a dog is a teacher of life, who teaches us the principles of the most important moral values; honesty, integrity, loyalty, trust, respect and love Picture Quote #1

The teacher who allows his scholars the freedom of the city of books is at liberty to be their guide, philosopher and friend; and is no longer the mere instrument of forcible intellectual feeding Picture Quote #1

If you don’t have an effective teacher in front of the classroom, you won’t change the trajectory for students Picture Quote #1

A good teacher is like a good artist. They go right to the most difficult part of whatever’s going on Picture Quote #1

Difficulties come into our lives to develop us. Every storm is a school. Every trial is a teacher. Every experience is an education Picture Quote #1

It is difficult for a student to pick a good teacher, but it is more difficult for a teacher to pick a good student Picture Quote #1

As a child, I was very shy. Painfully, excruciatingly shy. I hid a lot in my room. I was so terrified to read out loud in school that I had to have my mother ask my reading teacher not to call on me in class Picture Quote #1

One pretends to do something, or copy someone or some teacher, until it can be done confidently and easily in what becomes one’s own style Picture Quote #1

The time was when a library was very like a museum and the librarian a mouser among dusty books. The time is when the library is a school and the librarian in the highest sense a teacher Picture Quote #1

Acceptance is not a talent you either have or don’t have. It’s a learned response. My meditation teacher made a great point about the difference between a reaction and a response: You may not have control over your initial reaction to something, but you can decide what your response will be. You don’t have to be at the mercy of your emotions, and acceptance can be your first step toward empowerment... For me, acceptance has been the cornerstone to my having an emotionally healthy response to my illness Picture Quote #1

I accept relationship as my primary teacher about myself, other people, and the mysteries of the universe Picture Quote #1

Every good teaching may still end up producing evil bandits who have no principles whatsoever, an outcome even more likely when the teacher is also a bandit Picture Quote #1

If you are on to something creative, school can also inhibit you. The wrong teacher, man, can really mess you up Picture Quote #1

The last thing we need to do, relating to teachers, is the key to a good education in this country is a strong teacher. I would have a minimum wage for all our teachers, $40,000 per year Picture Quote #1

A teacher in search of his/her own freedom may be the only kind of teacher who can arouse young persons to go in search of their own Picture Quote #1

There’s this old saying that, if you aren’t particularly gifted in natural sciences, if you don’t want to become a teacher or pastor or doctor, and don’t know what else to do, then you become a lawyer. But I’ve never regretted it Picture Quote #1

Leisure is one of the three greatest rewards of being a teacher. It is, unfortunately, the privilege which teachers most often misuse Picture Quote #1

Just as a person is commanded to honor and revere his father, so he is under an obligation to honor and revere his teacher, even to a greater extent than his father; for his father gave him life in this world, while his teacher instructs him in wisdom, secures for him life in the world to come Picture Quote #1

I initially wanted to be a teacher, and then I was going to become an engineer and build bridges and highways, but pretty soon I went into the business world. I never did get to be a teacher except in a different way Picture Quote #1

The most successful classes are those where the teacher has a clear idea of what is expected from the students and the students know what the teacher expects from them Picture Quote #1

Do not go looking for problems to feed your soul. Just let life be your teacher. It will nourish you with its inevitable difficulties. How will you know whether you are letting life teach you and nourish you? If your physical senses become more sensitive to the beauty you see, the words of love you hear, and the life you feel touching your body and soul, then you know you have discovered the great value of misfortune Picture Quote #1
