Teacher
Quotes - A good teacher always refuses to have disciples!
“You
can be in your room and lead people. Just develop your potentials and publicize
them and you will see people looking for your product. That is influence;
self-made leaders do not look for followers. Followers look for them.”

“A
true leader is still a leader even when he takes up servants' duty, provided he
maintains a human face and added integrity to his self-retained qualities.”

Palmer is a teacher so naturally I assumed she would never do anything good for
me.”

“The
concept of leadership is abused by people who think a person becomes a leader
when he grows grey hair, put into a position and expected to function. Everyone
has a leadership potential carried within in a specific area of his or purpose.
Leadership is universal and built on trust.”

I'm late," Ms. Egami said to the class. She dropped her papers, which

“A
good teacher always refuses to have disciples! Let everyone goes his own way,
in his own path instead of following others! If the direction is correct, there
will be a meeting in the same place!”

“We
have probably all seen teachers who would pick a student up by the scruff of
the neck for saying ‘Shit,’ but who would walk by without a word when
overhearing that same student taunting a classmate, calling him a ‘fag.’ It is
often easier not to intervene — even when there is a clear-cut victim. It’s out
in the hall. It isn’t our business. It isn’t our problem.
But
our inactions, like our actions, define who we are and what are true values
are.”

“There
is no humility in calling yourself a Christian; placing Christ in the role of
colleague. The humility lies in the truth of your imperfection and a more
accurate description as a student of Christianity; placing Christ back in the
role as head teacher.”

Experience
“Do
you know that when one who has influence with youth- be he teacher, leader or
parent- seriously weakens the foundations upon which a young person has built,
by faith-destroying challenges the youngster is not yet equipped to meet, he
fashions a disciple who has been effectively cut loose from fundamentals at a
time when he needs most to rely on them? The challenger may himself be a moral,
educated, well-meaning person of integrity, doing what he does in the name of
honesty and truth. His own character may have been formed in an atmosphere of
faith and conviction which, through his influence, he may now help to destroy
in his young follower. "Disenchanted" himself in his mature years, he
turns his powers on an immature mind and leaves it ready prey for nostrums and
superstitions and behavior he himself would disdain.”

“What
will you do?" Eva would ask him. "I don't know," he would say.
He ruled out law, because he didn't like lawyers, and he ruled out medicine
because he couldn't take the sight of blood. "What will you do?" It
was only through default that the best professor I ever had became a teacher.”

Lesson
“Have
you ever really had a teacher? One who saw you as a raw but precious thing, a
jewel that, with wisdom, could be polished to a proud shine? If you are lucky
enough to find your way to such teachers, you will always find your way back.
Sometimes it is only in your head. Sometimes it is right alongside their beds.”

why I went into teaching in the first place. I like the sound of my own voice.
Well that, and I am addicted to the smell of chalk and white-board markers.”

sarcasm or fear.”

“The
students lurked on the edges of their teachers' lives for years, and brought
bulletins from their own lives, which over time began to include lovers,
ambitions, an upward trajectory.”

“...he's
the kind of teacher who only accepts absences in the event of death. Even if
you were almost dead, he'd still expect you to drag yourself to class with your
last breath to take notes on the symbolish in Romeo and Juliet.”
