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.
A very wise old teacher once said: “I consider a day’s teaching wasted if we do not all have one hearty laugh.” So here is to our teachers and the children who tyrannize them:-)
