What motivates our teachers? Hear some of their favorite inspirational quotes. TEACHER TALK “Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore.” Cesar Chavez “It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.” Albert Einstein “Education is an economic issue — if not the economic issue of our times. Education is a prerequisite for prosperity. And yet we’ve tolerated a status quo… that is morally inexcusable and economically indefensible.” President Barack Obama “I’ve failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” Michael Jordan “When our days become dreary with low-hovering clouds of despair, and when our nights become darker than a thousand midnights, let us remember that there is a creative force in this universe, working to pull down the gigantic mountains of evil, a power that is able to make a way out of no way and transform dark yesterdays into bright tomorrows. Let us realize the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice.” Dr. Martin Luther King “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” Nelson Mandela
