If mind cannot by effort become what is beyond mind, Supermind can descend and transform mind into its own substance. Sri Aurobindo

teacher sex children
People don't want children to know what they need to know. They want their kids to know what they ought to need to know.

Fine, but only when they're old enough to do it. You want to talk politics? Sure, but nothing modern. Religion? So long as you don't actually think about it. Otherwise some furious mob will come to your house and burn you for a witch. Nick Harkaway

teacher memories learning
Any piece of knowledge which the pupil has himself acquired- any problem which he has himself solved, becomes, by virtue of the conquest, much more thoroughly his than it could else be.

Herbert Spencer

I would see her in action, and she listened to every single person. She didn't say, "Oh, I'm tired. I gotta go." She was there, and present, with every single person. She's one of the great teachers. Sandra Cisneros
