"The irony of life: Realizing a lifetime is barely long enough to figure out how it should have been lived."
"The best teaching is often both an intellectual creation and a performing art."
"Our greatest mistakes, if we look at them, and digest them, and interact with them, and learn from them they can be the greatest moments of our lives."
"It is my intent to beget a good understanding between the chymists and the mechanical philosophers who have hitherto been too little acquainted with one another's learning."
"Wearing all that weight of learning like a flower."
"Do the things you know, and you shall learn the truth you need to know."
"Although the terms teaching and learning are typically paired, those of us who teach know that students don't always learn. When I complained about this early in my teaching career, a colleagues chided me: "Saying 'I thaught the students something, they just didn't learn it' is akin to saying 'I sold them the car, they just didn't but it'"."
"You can find humor in everything. everything."
"This too shall pass."
"When it comes to education all obstacles must be removed. This must become a priority for humanity."
"In short, we much struggle with the meaning of learning within our discipline and how best to cultivate and recognize it. For that task, we don't need routine experts who know all the right procedures but adaptive ones who can apply fundamental principles to all the situations and students they are likely to encounter, recognizing when invention is both possible and necessary and that there is no single 'best way' to teach."
"To benefit from what the best teachers do, however, we must embrace a different model, one in which teaching occurs only when learning takes place. Most fundamentally, teaching in this conception is creating those conditions in which most--if not all--of our students will realize their potential to learn. That sounds like hard work, and it is a little scary because we don't have complete control over who we are, but it is highly rewarding and obtainable."
"Having fun while learning feels like playing a game."
"There is no limit as to what we can learn. Through study, we can learn from the past. Experience can empower us to handle the present. For those who desire to learn of the future, dreams hold a subtle key.Not all things we see, as we sleep, should be cast aside as non-consequential rubbish. It is true that the mind can play many tricksbut it can also send you messages meant to be deciphered at a later date."
"We receive three educations, one from our parents, one from our school masters, and one from the world. The third contradicts all that the first two teach us."
"Looking back now, I would say that this was one of the first valuable lessons I learned, and one that would be useful in my future line of work. Sometimes things go wrong. It is inevitable. But it is a mistake to waste time and energy worrying about events that you cannot influence. Once they have happened, let them go."
"We lose our ability to live fully if we neglect or ignore our responsibility to the other people who share this planet with us. We simply cannot reach our full potential without the insights and observations that other people--our teachers--have to give us. We cannot feel whole until we are helping other people to reach for their potential and to grow as strong as they can grow. We do need down time, and we do need time to ourselves, but we very much need to acknowledge our ties to our fellow human beings and act as if those people meant more to us than our jobs or pets or cars do. They are much more important than anything material that we ever can get our hands on or strive for."
"I have lived my life backwards as compared to my peers. Everyone did incredibly stupid things as teenagers and pre-teens. I didn't. I was the one telling everybody that they were incredibly stupid. Now that they are all past that stage and we are all much older I am the one doing incredibly stupid things. I have figured that I've earned that right, by now! You have to earn the right to be stupid."
"The path to wisdom is paved with humility."
"We need people who push boundaries rather than retreat inside them."
