"The best teacher is the one who suggests rather than dogmatizes, and inspires his listener with the wish to teach himself."

"You teach best what you most need to learn." 


Richard Bach
"Teaching is a difficult profession. Artful teaching has a short shelf life that is not always respected by unions or the granters of tenure. Former libertine artists can be persuaded, as teachers, to cling for dear life to security. I recommend teaching contracts of no more than five years. Much less if the flame is burning low. The widespread practice of impassive teaching quells student curiosity and hatches dullards. Teachers need to be learners."
