Teacher Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Teacher

1.
In teaching others we teach ourselves.
Proverb

2.
We will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

3.
The teacher gives not of his wisdom, but rather of his faith and lovingness.
Gibran, Kahlil

4.
I swear... to hold my teacher in this art equal to my own parents; to make him partner in my livelihood; when he is in need of money to share mine with him; to consider his family as my own brothers and to teach them this art, if they want to learn it, without fee or indenture.
Hippocrates

5.
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

6.
The world of knowledge takes a crazy turn when teachers themselves are taught to learn.
Brecht, Bertolt

7.
No one ever teaches well who wants to teach, or governs well who wants to govern.
Plato

8.
Teaching is the greatest act of optimism.
Wilcox, Colleen

9.
He who dares to teach must never cease to learn.

10.
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

11.
Teaching isn't one-tenth as effective as training.
Mann, Horace

12.
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

13.
You can't teach a hunter it's wrong to kill.
Baba, Hari Dass

14.
I am not a teacher, but an awakener.
Frost, Robert

15.
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

16.
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

17.
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.

18.
A gifted teacher is as rare as a gifted doctor, and makes far less money.

19.
To teach successfully we must tell all we know, but only what is adaptable to the student.
La Harpe, Frederic-Cesar

20.
Good teaching must be slow enough so that it is not confusing, and fast enough so that it is not boring.
Harris, Sidney J.

21.
Teaching is of more importance than urging.
Luther, Martin

22.
The teacher must derive not only the capacity, but the desire, to observe natural phenomena. In our system, she must become a passive, much more than an active, influence, and her passivity shall be composed of anxious scientific curiosity and of absolute respect for the phenomenon which she wishes to observe. The teacher must understand and feel her position of observer: the activity must lie in the phenomenon.
Montessori, Maria

23.
Teaching is not a lost art, but the regard for it is a lost tradition.
Barzun, Jacques

24.
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

25.
In the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher.
Dalai Lama

26.
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

27.
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

28.
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

29.
The man who can make hard things easy is the educator.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

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

31.
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.

32.
To teach is to learn twice.
Joubert, Joseph

33.
Unless we do his teachings, we do not demonstrate faith in him.
Benson, Ezra Taft

34.
He who does not research has nothing to teach.
Proverb

35.
Those who know how to think need no teachers.
Gandhi, Mahatma

36.
He who undertakes to be his own teacher has a fool for a pupil.
Proverb, German

37.
Once more I would adopt the graver style -- a teacher should be sparing of his smile.
Cowper, William

38.
I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think.
Socrates

39.
Woe to him who teaches men faster than they can learn.
Durant, William J.

40.
What we want is to see the child in pursuit of knowledge, and not knowledge in pursuit of the child.
Shaw, George Bernard

41.
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

42.
When you introduce a moral lesson, let it be brief.
Horace

43.
Knowledge exists to be imparted.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

44.
Life is amazing: and the teacher had better prepare himself to be a medium for that amazement.
Blishen, Edward

45.
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

46.
A schoolmaster should have an atmosphere of awe, and walk wonderingly, as if he was amazed at being himself.
Bagehot, Walter

47.
I believe that every human soul is teaching something to someone nearly every minute here in mortality.
Ballard, M. Russell

48.
We must view young people not as empty bottles to be filled, but as candles to be lit.
Shaffer, Robert H.

49.
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

50.
My object will be, if possible, to form Christian men, for Christian boys I can scarcely hope to make.
Arnold, Thomas
