“Have no friends not equal to yourself.”

“Good is no hermit. It has ever neighbors.”

“Somewhere between the ages of eleven and fifteen, the average child begins to suffer from an atrophy, the paralysis of curiosity and the suspension of the power to observe. The trouble, I should judge, to lie with the schools.”

“If you want to learn to swim you have to throw yourself in the water.”

“Just because I like sushi, doesn't mean I can make sushi. I've come to well understand how many years just to get sushi rice correct. It's a discipline that takes years and years and years. So, I leave that to the experts.”

“The same is true of Love, and the instinctive desire to please those whom we love. The teacher who succeeds in getting herself loved by the pupils will obtain results which one of a more forbidding temperament finds it impossible to secure.”

“To be a teacher in the right sense is to be a learner. I am not a teacher, only a fellow student.”

“If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.”
