My
country is a country of teachers. It is therefore
a country of peace. We discuss our successes and
failures in complete freedom. Because our country
is a country of teachers, we closed the army camps,
and our children go about with books under their
arms, not with rifles on their shoulders. We believe
in dialogue, in agreement, in reaching a consensus.

try to fix the students, fix ourselves first. The good
teacher makes the poor student good and the good student
superior. When our students fail, we, as teachers, too,
have failed.

ordinary" people to unusual effort. The tough problem
is not in identifying winners: it is in making winners
out of ordinary people.

In teaching we rely on the "naturals," the ones
who somehow know how to teach.

We
now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong
process of keeping abreast of change. And the
