...some teaching quotes...

"There are two kinds of teachers: the kind that fill you with so much quail shot that you can't move, and the kind that just give you a little prod behind and you jump to the skies." -(Robert Frost)

"Spoon feeding in the long run teaches us nothing but the shape of the spoon." -(G.M. Forster)

"Most of us end up with no more than five or six people who remember us. Teachers have thousands of people who remember them for most of their lives." -(Andy Rooney)

"I was in a restaurant once whe the assistant manager came up to me and said "Mr Jones! You taught me in eighth grade seven years ago. This is a little corny, but I want to show you something." He pulled out of his wallet a picture of me, and said, "Whenever I need some inspiration, i look at your picture and remember all the things you taught me about life." That is what teaching is all about. -(David Jones) (...that one made me cry)

"If you plan for a decade, plant a tree. If you plan for a century, teach the children." -(Anon)
