Those who educate children well are more to be honored than... - Aristotle

"A friend to all is a friend to none."

"Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living well."

"It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light."

"Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives - choice, not chance, determines your destiny."

"Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit."
