Quotes - Travel is the Ultimate Teacher
“This
teacher was kind and well-intentioned, but I wonder whether students like the
young safety officer would be better off if we appreciated that not everyone
aspires to be a leader in the conventional sense of the word—that some people
wish to fit harmoniously into the group, and others to be independent of it.
Often the most highly creative people are in the latter category. As Janet
Farrall and Leonie Kronborg write in Leadership Development for the Gifted and
Talented: while extroverts tend to attain leadership in public domains,
introverts tend to attain leadership in theoretical and aesthetic fields.
Outstanding introverted leaders, such as Charles Darwin, Marie Curie, Patrick
White and Arthur Boyd, who have created either new fields of thought or
rearranged existing knowledge, have spent long periods of their lives in
solitude. Hence leadership does not only apply in social situations, but also
occurs in more solitary situations such as developing new techniques in the
arts, creating new philosophies, writing profound books and making scientific
breakthroughs.”

Is

Is

Paching Hoé Lambaiho, Words of the Shaman: 50 Quotes from Paching Hoé Lambaiho
“Teaching,
in its noblest expression, transcends the mere transmission of knowledge. It is
an act of selfless love, where the master, far from seeking to impose their
greatness, becomes the bridge facilitating the student's growth. The teacher
helps the student explore and realize their abilities, guiding and supporting
their journey toward profound development.”
