Famous quotes containing the word teaching:

    “The most important part of teaching = to teach what it is to know.”
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    “There is no teaching until the pupil is brought into the same state or principle in which you are; a transfusion takes place; he is you, and you are he; then is a teaching; and by no unfriendly chance or bad company can he ever lose the benefit.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It may be that through habit these do best,
    Coming to water clumsily undressed
    Yearly; teaching their children by a sort
    Of clowning; helping the old, too, as they ought.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
