My Philosophy Of Life:
Success
"To laugh often and much;
to win the respect of intelligent people
and affection of children; to earn the
appreciation of honest critics and endure
the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best
in others; to leave the world a bit better; whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even
one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded."

How I View My Role as a Teacher:
SOMEBODY HAS TO:
Somebody has to go polish the stars
They're looking a little bit dull.
Somebody has to go polish the stars,
For the eagles and starlings and gulls
Have all been complaining they're tarnished and worn,
They say they want new ones we cannot afford.
So please get your rags
And your polishing jars,
Somebody has to go polish the stars.
-Shel Silverstein, A Light in the Attic
