Famous quotes containing the words teacher and/or writer:
“The dyed-in-the-wool teacher takes everything seriously only with respect to his students—himself included.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“I perceived that to express those impressions, to write that essential book, which is the only true one, a great writer does not, in the current meaning of the word, invent it, but, since it exists already in each one of us, interprets it. The duty and the task of a writer are those of an interpreter.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
