      The Little Red Book of Teacher's Wisdom - Diane Hodges

      Introduction

      Iam addicted to quotes. I love quotes. I collect quotes. I have an entire file cabinet that holds them, and I have moved that cabinet to three different states over the years. As I go toward the end of my career and my life, I envision my children recycling thousands of pages in this quotes cabinet into the recycling bin. To make sure this doesn't occur, I decided to share my file cabinet with you. I put quotes on memos, on bulletin boards, on paychecks, in restrooms . . . anywhere that I know they will be seen. I hope you will, too.

      —Diane Hodges

      PART ONE

      Education

      There is no word in the language I revere more than

      teacher. My heart sings when a kid refers to me as his

      teacher, and it always has. I've honored myself and the entire

      family of man by becoming a teacher.

      —PAT CONROY

      Children need all school workers. A person is not just a

      janitor, not just a custodian. Janitors can see children when

      (teachers) don't see them, and bus drivers recognize that children

      who are disruptive on the bus are likely disorderly in the

      classroom. They're partners in education. We need each other

      to make this work.

      —REV. JESSE JACKSON

      I dedicate myself to the life of an educator, to laying the living

      foundations upon which successor generations must continue

      to build their lives.

      I dedicate myself to the advancement of learning, for I know

      that without it our successors will lack both the vision and the

      power to build well.

      I dedicate myself to the cultivation of character, for I know

      that humanity cannot flourish without courage, compassion,

      honesty, and trust.

      I commit myself to advancement of my own learning and to

      the cultivation of my own character, for I know that I must

      bear witness in my own life to the ideals that I have dedicated

      myself to promote in others.

      In the presence of this gathering, I so dedicate and commit

      myself.

      —STEVEN TIGNER, AFFIRMED ANNUALLY IN THE

      BOSTON UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF EDUCATION

      JUNIOR PINNING CEREMONY

      A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence

      stops.

      —HENRY B. ADAMS

      It takes a special person with patience and wisdom to share, to

      unlock the treasure waiting within children everywhere.

      —JOAN ZATORSKI

      The future of the world is in my classroom today, a future

      with the potential for good or bad . . . Several future

      presidents are learning from me today; so are the great writers

      of the next decades, and so are all the so-called ordinary

      people who will make decisions in a democracy. I must never

      forget these same young people could be the thieves and

      murderers of the future. Only a teacher? Thank God I have

      a calling to the greatest profession of all! I must be vigilant

      every day, lest I lose one fragile opportunity to improve

      tomorrow.

      —IVAN WELTON FITZWATER

      One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but

      with gratitude to those who
