Teacher Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Teacher

1.
Knowledge exists to be imparted.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

The true teacher defends his pupils against his own personal influence. He inspires self-distrust. He guides their eyes from himself to the spirit that quickens him. He will have no disciple.
Alcott, Amos Bronson

3.
I am not a teacher, but an awakener.
Frost, Robert

4.
Lessons of wisdom have the most power over us when they capture the heart through the groundwork of a story, which engages the passions.
Sterne, Laurence

5.
The first duty of a lecturer is to hand you after an hour's discourse a nugget of pure truth to wrap up between the pages of your notebooks and keep on the mantelpiece forever.
Woolf, Virginia

6.
When teaching, light a fire, don't fill a bucket.
Snow, Dan

Arrogance, pedantry, and dogmatism... the occupational diseases of those who spend their lives directing the intellects of the young.
Canby, Henry S.

Never offer to teach a fish to swim.
Proverb

Teaching is the greatest act of optimism.
Wilcox, Colleen

10.
He who undertakes to be his own teacher has a fool for a pupil.
Proverb, German

11.
The real difficulty, the difficulty which has baffled the sages of all times, is rather this: how can we make our teaching so potent in the motional life of man, that its influence should withstand the pressure of the elemental psychic forces in the individual?
Einstein, Albert

12.
Teaching is of more importance than urging.
Luther, Martin

13.
What office is there which involves more responsibility, which requires more qualifications, and which ought, therefore, to be more honorable, than that of teaching?
Martineau, Harriet

14.
A gifted teacher is as rare as a gifted doctor, and makes far less money.

15.
It is easier for a tutor to command than to teach.
Locke, John

16.
Whatever you teach, be brief; what is quickly said the mind readily receives and faithfully retains, while everything superfluous runs over as from a full container. Who knows much says least.
Proverb

17.
In teaching others we teach ourselves.
Proverb

18.
I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think.
Socrates

19.
The one exclusive sign of thorough knowledge is the power of teaching.
Aristotle

20.
Those who go to college and never get out are called professors.
Givot, George

21.
My object will be, if possible, to form Christian men, for Christian boys I can scarcely hope to make.
Arnold, Thomas

22.
The truth is that the average schoolmaster, on all the lower levels, is and always must be essentially and next door to an idiot, for how can one imagine an intelligent man engaging in so puerile an avocation?
Mencken, H. L.

23.
To teach is to learn twice.
Joubert, Joseph

24.
To be good is noble, but to teach others how to be good is nobler and less trouble.
Twain, Mark

25.
One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.
Jung, Carl

26.
The world of knowledge takes a crazy turn when teachers themselves are taught to learn.
Brecht, Bertolt

27.
Morality sticks faster when presented in brief sayings than when presented in long discourse.
Immermann

28.
The secret of teaching is to appear to have known all your life what you just learned this morning.

29.
I believe that every human soul is teaching something to someone nearly every minute here in mortality.
Ballard, M. Russell

30.
The schoolmaster is abroad! And I trust to him armed with his primer against the soldier in full military array.
Bentham, Jeremy

31.
We will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

32.
The teacher gives not of his wisdom, but rather of his faith and lovingness.
Gibran, Kahlil

33.
Children should be led into the right paths, not by severity, but by persuasion.
Terence

34.
A schoolmaster should have an atmosphere of awe, and walk wonderingly, as if he was amazed at being himself.
Bagehot, Walter

36.
The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.
Doren, Mark Van

37.
Your Master Teacher knows all you need to learn, the perfect timing for your learning it, and the ideal way of teaching it to you. You don't create a Master Teacher -- that's already been done. You discover your Master Teacher.
Mcwilliams, Peter

38.
If you think in terms of a year, plant a seed; if in terms of ten years, plant trees; if in terms of 100 years, teach the people.
Confucius

39.
Why are we never quite at ease in the presence of a schoolmaster? Because we are conscious that he is not quite at his ease in ours. He is awkward, and out of place in the society of his equals. He comes like Gulliver from among his little people, and he cannot fit the stature of his understanding to yours.
Lamb, Charles

40.
Unless we do his teachings, we do not demonstrate faith in him.
Benson, Ezra Taft

41.
The highest function of the teacher consists not so much in imparting knowledge as in stimulating the pupil in its love and pursuit.

42.
Life is amazing: and the teacher had better prepare himself to be a medium for that amazement.
Blishen, Edward

43.
There is no real teacher who in practice does not believe in the existence of the soul, or in a magic that acts on it through speech.
Bloom, Allan

44.
Most subjects at universities are taught for no other purpose than that they may be re-taught when the students become teachers.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

45.
A schoolteacher or professor cannot educate individuals, he educates only species.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

46.
You can't teach a hunter it's wrong to kill.
Baba, Hari Dass

47.
To know how to suggest is the great art of teaching. To attain it we must be able to guess what will interest; we must learn to read the childish soul as we might a piece of music. Then, by simply changing the key, we keep up the attraction and vary the song.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

48.
What we want is to see the child in pursuit of knowledge, and not knowledge in pursuit of the child.
Shaw, George Bernard

49.
To teach well, we need not say all that we know, Successful teachers are effective in spite of the psychological theories they suffer under.
Proverb

50.
In the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher.
Dalai Lama
