William Glasser
What students lack in school is an intellectual relationship or conversation with the teacher.
William Glasser
Caring for but never trying to own may be a further way to define friendship.
William Glasser
This is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth.
William Glasser
Effective teaching may be the hardest job there is.
William Glasser
The day we stop playing will be the day we stop learning.
William Glasser
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.
William Glasser
There is plenty of competition in a Glasser Quality School in that there is winning but no losing.
