She noticed the potential and wanted to help
shape it.

The importance of early experiences rests
on the fact that they set the stage for all
that comes later.
All children can learn and succeed,
but not on the same day
or in the same way.

Friendship is born at that
moment when
one person says to another:
“ What! You too? I thought I was
the only one. ”

Differences are not intended to separate, to alienate.
We are different precisely in order to realise our need
of one another.

It must be remembered that the purpose
of education is not to fill the minds of
students with facts... it is to teach them
to think, if that is possible, and always to
think for themselves.
Cooperation
is one of the most important human activities.
Elephants have survived as a species because of their size;
cheetahs because of their speed;
humans because of their ability to cooperate for the
good of the group.
In modern life, people who can organize as a group to
accomplish a common end are likely to be successful – in
business, in sports, in the military,
in education, or in virtually
any endeavor.
Taking their homes with them wherever they go, turtles remind us to
remember our roots while still welcoming new places in life.
They teach us to appreciate life’s simple, true necessities: shelter, food,
drink, and most importantly, faith.
The turtle’s slow gait requires the turtle to have faith that it will eventually
get where it is going and that its needs will be satisfied along the way.

Children are our most valuable natural resource.
Why Can’t I?
It is unkind.
It is hurtful.
It is unfair.
It is dishonest.

If you tell people where to go,
but not how to get there,
you’ll be amazed at the results.

All kids need is a little help, a little hope, and
somebody who believes in them.
Whether you think you can,
or think you can’t,
you’re right.

Teaching kids to count is
fine,
but teaching them what
counts is best.

Modern cynics and skeptics... see no
harm in paying those to whom they
entrust the minds of their children a
smaller wage than is paid to those to
whom they entrust the care of their
plumbing.

In Germany, they came first for the Communists and I didn’t speak up because I
wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I was not a
trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then, they came for me, and by that time, no one was left to speak up.

It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief
that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands
up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or
strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple
of hope.

Change will not come if we wait for some other
person or some other time. We are the ones
we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that
we seek.
From this day forward, the millions of our
schoolchildren will daily proclaim in every
city and town, every village and rural
schoolhouse, the dedication of our nation
and our people to the Almighty.

Learning is like rowing upstream:
not to advance is to drop back.
