WHAT IS A RELATIONSHIP ???

Relationships

Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something: they're trying to find someone who's going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.Anthony Robbins

The problem with relationships are that people are so busy falling in love that they forget to fall in like.Unknown

We are never more discontented with others than when we are discontented with ourselves.
Henri Frederic Amiel

One can find women who have never had one love affair, but it is rare indeed to find any who have had only one.Francois De La Rochefoucauld

My attachment has neither the blindness of the beginning, nor the microscopic accuracy of the close of such liaisons.Lord Byron

 A relationship, I think, is like a shark, you know? It has to constantly move forward or it dies. And I think what we got on our hands is a dead shark.Woody Allen

All things need watching, working at, caring for and marriage is no exception. Marriage is not something to be treated indifferently, or abused or something that simply takes care of itself. Nothing neglected will remain as it was or is, or will fail to deteriorate. All things need attention care and concern and especially so in this most sensitive of all relationships of life.Richard L. Evans

You must go to bed with friends or whores, where money makes up the difference in beauty or desire.
W. H. Auden

If going into the past was as easy as taking a step backward, we would never move forward.Nicole Valenica

The ultimate test of a relationship is to disagree but to hold hands.
Alexandria Penney

Human relationships always help us to carry on because they always presuppose further developments, a future --and also because we live as if our only task was precisely to have relationships with other people.
Albert Camus

Surely there must be some way to find a husband or, for that matter, merely an escort, without sacrificing one's privacy, self-respect, and interior decorating scheme. For example, men could be imported from the developing countries, many parts of which are suffering from a man excess, at least in relation to local food supply.Barbara Ehrenreich

 The thing that's between us is fascination, and the fascination resides in our being alike. Whether you're a man or a woman, the fascination resides in finding out that we're alike.Marguerite Duras

I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality. I am weary of personality. Let us be easy and impersonal, not forever fingering over our own souls, and the souls of our acquaintances, but trying to create a new life, a new common life, a new complete tree of life from the roots that are within us.D. H. Lawrence

 

We can never establish with certainty what part of our relations with others is the result of our emotions -- love, antipathy, charity, or malice -- and what part is predetermined by the constant power play among individuals.

 

WHAT IS EDUCATION ???

Education

Education is the great engine of personal development. It is through education that the daughter of a peasant can become a doctor, that a son of a mineworker can become the head of the mine, that a child of farm workers can become the president...
Nelson Mandela

You have four years to be irresponsible here. Relax. Work is for people with jobs. You'll never remember class time, but you'll remember time you wasted hanging out with your friends. So, stay out late. Go out on a Tuesday with your friends when you have a paper due Wednesday. Spend money you don't have. Drink 'til sunrise. The work never ends, but college does.
Tom Petty

 It must be the aim of education to teach the citizen that he must first of all rule himself.
Winthrop A. Aldrich

Ignorance never settle a question.
Benjamin Disraeli

Life is my college. May I graduate well, and earn some honors.
Louisa May Alcott

Ignorance is dangerous, but knowledge without responsibility is more dangerous.
Bruce B. Clark

Children are educated by what the grown-up is and not by his talk.
Carl Jung

The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts.
C. S. Lewis

An education obtained with money is worse than no education at all
Socrates

Education is the ability to meet life's situations.
Dr. John G. Hibben

Education helps one case cease being intimidated by strange situations.
Maya Angelou

The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.
Dr. Seuss

WHAT IS GRADUATION ???

Graduation"

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.Mark Twain

If I made you laugh, your welcome. If I made you cry, im sorry. If I changed your life, chances are you've done the same

Life is my college. May I graduate well, and earn some honors!
Louisa May Alcott

Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these
Susan B. Anthony

The purpose of a liberal education is to make you philosophical enough to accept the fact that you will never make much money.

The young graduate is discovering that among the necessaries of life, the most important is living

Whenever it is possible, a boy should choose some occupation which he should do even if he did not need the money.William Lyon Phelps

Commencement speeches were invented largely in the belief that outgoing college students should never be released into the world until they have been properly sedated.
Garry Trudeau

It's not your blue blood, your pedigree or your college degree. It's what you do with your life that counts
Millard Fuller

Don't be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated; you can't cross a chasm in two small jumps.David Lloyd George

The advantage of a classical education is that it enables you to despise the wealth that it prevents you from achieving.

 

WHO IS A TEACHER ????

Teachers And Teaching

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher strates. The great teacher inspires.William Arthur Ward

It must be the aim of education to teach the citizen that he must first of all rule himself.
Winthrop A. Aldrich

To teach is to learn twice.Joseph Joubert

The real difficulty, the difficulty which has baffled the sages of all times, is rather this: how can we make our teaching so potent in the motional life of man, that its influence should withstand the pressure of the elemental psychic forces in the individual?Albert Einstein

One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.Carl Jung

 

Nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.Oscar Wilde

 Trust no one to be your teacher...except he be a mon of God, walking in his ways and keeping his commandments. Mosiah 23:14Book of Mormon

 The truth is that the average schoolmaster, on all the lower levels, is and always must be essentially and next door to an idiot, for how can one imagine an intelligent man engaging in so puerile an avocation?
H. L. Mencken

The teacher gives not of his wisdom, but rather of his faith and lovingness.Kahlil Gibran

We must view young people not as empty bottles to be filled, but as candles to be lit.Robert H. Shaffer

The true teacher defends his pupils against his own personal influence. He inspires self-distrust. He guides their eyes from himself to the spirit that quickens him. He will have no disciple.Amos Bronson Alcott

Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.Plato
