Nowadays, all students have access to and indeed most own computers and are comfortable with the software used to compose music. There are probably too many musical options for them now and the trick is to limit the number of musical ideas so as to develop structure and continuity in their work.
Jon Howard Appleton
Knowledge was inherent in all things. The world was a library and its books were the stones, leaves, grass, brooks and the birds and animals that shared, alike with us ,the storms and blessings of the earth. We learn to do what only the student of nature ever learns, and that is to feel beauty. We never rail at the storms, the furious winds ,the biting frosts and snows. To do so intensifies human futility, so whatever comes we should adjust ourselves by more effort and energy if necessary, but without complaint. Bright days and dark days are both expressions of the Great Mystery, and the Indian reveled in being close the the Great Holiness.
Chief Luther Standing Bear
The truth is, when all is said and done, one does not teach a subject, one teaches a student how to learn it.
Jacques Barzun
What is a teacher? I'll tell you: it isn't someone who teaches something, but someone who inspires the student to give of her best in order to discover what she already knows.
Paulo Coelho
Consequently the student who is devoid of talent will derive no more profit from this work than barren soil from a treatise on agriculture.
Quintilian
The students [of the 60s] substituted conspicuous compassion for their parents conspicuous consumption.
Allan David Bloom
We must realise that prophetic cry of black students: "Black man you are on your own!"
Stephen Bantu Biko
Tell the students to give up their small ambitions and come eastward to preach the gospel of Christ.
Francis Xavier
A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that "individuality" is the key to success.
Robert Orben
It is hard to convince a high-school student that he will encounter a lot of problems more difficult than those of algebra and geometry.
Edgar W. Howe
The symbol of the University is the iron statue outside the Rathskeller of a barefoot goosegirl that every student kisses at graduation. The University is a Mecca to which students come with something less than perfect faith. It is important that students bring a certain ragamuffin, barefoot irreverence to their studies; they are not here to worship what is known but to question it.
Jacob Bronowski
Therefore O students study mathematics and do not build without foundations.
Leonardo Da Vinci
What students lack in school is an intellectual relationship or conversation with the teacher.
William Glasser
Students rarely disappoint teachers who assure them in advance that they are doomed to failure
Sidney Hook
