One of the Spanish teachers gave me a book of quotes about teaching, and here are my two favorites:
"Schools are the most effective means if developing and training those powers and faculties in a child, by which, when he becomes a man, he may understand what his highest interests and his highest duties are; and may be, in fact, and not in name only, a free agent." - Horace Mann
"Genius without Education is like Silver in the Mine." - Benjamin Franklin
