[T]eaching has been for me an education (Lord knows what it has been for my students).

About This Quote

The world is not a classroom. It’s a battlefield, and the only way to win is to keep fighting. The best teacher will put students through their paces, not make it easy for them. Admitting that you’re wrong, apologizing when you’re in the wrong, and learning from mistakes are all part of learning to become a better person. In fact, those are the hallmarks of great teachers.
