More quotes by William Glasser
I think it is totally wrong and terribly harmful if education is defined as acquiring knowledge.
William Glasser
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.
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
As long as acquiring knowledge is the educational goal of schools, educational opportunities will be limited, as they are now, to affluent families.
William Glasser
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.
William Glasser
The answer lies in preventing these failures, not in looking for better ways to fix the people who are failing.
William Glasser
What happened in the past that was painful has a great deal to do with what we are today, but revisiting this painful past can contribute little or nothing to what we need to do now.
William Glasser
Sex is on the minds of most people, especially those who shouldn't be having it.
William Glasser
The Compassionate Classroom is a fabulous book! If teachers will read it, they can transform their classrooms.
William Glasser
Today much of what we call education is merely knowledge gathering and remembering. Problem solving and thinking, never strong parts of our educational system, have been downgraded in all but a few scientific subjects.
William Glasser
Every single major push in education has made it worse and right now it's really bad because everything we've done is de-humanizing education. It's destroying the possibility of the teacher and the student having a warm, friendly, intellectual relationship.
William Glasser
To be depressed or neurotic is passive. It happened to us we are its victim, and we have no control over it.
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
Good or bad, everything we do is our best choice at that moment.
William Glasser
To focus on discipline is to ignore the real problem: We will never be able to get students (or anyone else) to be in good order if, day after day, we try to force them to do what they do not find satisfying.
William Glasser
If we had in this room a hundred teachers, good teachers from good schools, and asked them to define the word education, there would be very little general agreement.
William Glasser
The day we stop playing will be the day we stop learning.
William Glasser
Education is the process in which we discover that learning adds quality to our lives. Learning must be experienced.
William Glasser
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.
William Glasser
When you study great teachers... you will learn much more from their caring and hard work than from their style.
William Glasser
