William Glasser quotes about
information
What we get, and all we ever get, from the outside is information; how we choose to act on this information is up to us.
teacher retirement talking
We can teach a lot of things, but if the teacher can't relate by talking to a group of friendly students, he'll never be a competent teacher.
pay ability humans
Without pay, no human being will work up to their ability if he or she is not cared for and respected.
friendship caring psychology
Caring for but never trying to own may be a further way to define friendship.
strong pain giving-up
Unlike the weak, the strong neither give up nor are driven by pain into rash or stupid behavior. They don't like pain any more than anyone else, but they are not willing to settle for short-term relief if it means reducing their options later. They don't rob Peter to pay Paul, they face reality now.
responsibility challenges intellectual
To counter the avoidance of intellectual challenge and responsibility, we must reduce the domination of certainty in education.
acceptance quality world
Using no control and using humor will build a relationship and make a dent to where the client puts the counselor in their quality world and then begins to relate and seek out the counselor. Effective therapy begins with the acceptance of the therapist into the client's quality world.
teacher school years
We can pay teachers a hundred thousand dollars a year, and we'll do nothing to improve our schools as long as we keep the A, B, C, D, F grading system.
crazy book thinking
They have this big book called the 'DSM-IV,' you know, that is supposedly written about crazy people, but I think it is a book that is written by crazy people!
school acquire
You can acquire a lot of knowledge without ever going to school.
teacher interesting-conversation perspective
Prior to being allowed to enter the profession, prospective teachers should be asked to talk with a group of friendly students for at least half an hour and be able to engage them in an interesting conversation about any subject the prospective teacher wants to talk about.
matter students faster
The faster you go, the more students you leave behind. It doesn't matter how much or how fast you teach. The true measure is how much students have learned.
friendship best-friend essentials
Everybody needs one essential friend.
peace war next
Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war, it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first.
