There is a thought that stops thought.
That is the only thought that ought to be stopped.
--G.K. Chesterton

 “Sorry kids, you are not the authority in the classroom.
Me Teacher.
You student. Me Teach , you learn.
End of discussion . . . Education is not a business. You are not my customer.
 My classroom is not Burger King. You do not get to ‘have it your way.’”

-- A Teacher
Responding in The Chronicle of Higher Education to the recent movement in higher education
to treat students like customers
The Time Movie

I delight in learning
so that I can teach.   
--Seneca 4 BC - 65 AD

Hello, hello, hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?
 --Pink Floyd

I was educated once, and it took me years to get over it.

--Ashleigh Brilliant
