Challenge .....The harder the course, the more rewarding the triumph.
Persistence.....Everything is possible for those who have persistence.
Perseverance.....There is no substitute for hard work.
Don't live down to expectations. Go out there and do something remarkable.
Excellence can be attained if you...care more than others think is wise; risk more than others think is safe; dream more than others think is practical; expect more than others think possible.
Persistence is the twin sister of excellence. One is a matter of quality; the other, a matter of time.
Don't waste your time striving for perfection, instead, strive for excellence - doing your best.
Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude.
I assure you that whoever tells this hill to get up and throw itself in the sea and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. For this reason I tell you: When you pray and ask for something, believe that you have received it, and you will be given whatever you ask for. ( Mark 11 vs 23-24. )
Show me a man who does a good job, and I will show you a man who is better than most and worthy of the company of kings. ( proverbs 22 vs 29 )
Pay attention to your teacher and learn all you can ( Proverbs 23 vs 12 )
We can't CHANGE the world, but we know we can make a DIFFERENCE in yours.
Every student can learn, not on the same day, or in the same way.
That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way.
What is important is to keep learning, to enjoy challenge, and to tolerate ambiguity. In the end there are no certain answers.
In a completely rational society, the best of us would aspire to be teachers and the rest of us would have to settle for something less, because passing civilization along from one generation to the next ought to be the highest honour and the highest responsibility anyone could have.
Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination incircles the world.
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.
They may forget what you said but they will never forget how you made them feel.
The job of an educator is to teach students to see vitality in themselves.
I hear, and I forget. I see, and I remember. I do, and I understand.
Education is not the filling of a bucket, but the lighting of a fire.
The objective of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives.
There is a brilliant child locked inside every student.
A teacher affects eternity ; he can never tell where his influence stops.
Information cannot replace education.
We all need someone who inspires us to do better than we know how.
