“We almost always have choices, and the better the choice, the more we will be in control of our lives.”
“Everybody needs one essential friend.”
“We don't focus as much in schools on educational knowledge which requires thinking and application, as we do on acquiring facts.”
“Effective teaching may be the hardest job there is.”
“What students lack in school is an intellectual relationship or conversation with the teacher.”
“When we depress, we believe we are the victims of a feeling over which we have no control.”
“Every single major push in education has made it worse and right now it's really bad because everything we've done is de-humanizing education. It's destroying the possibility of the teacher and the student having a warm, friendly, intellectual relationship.”
