Music is your own experience your own thoughts your wisdom. If you don't live it it won't come out of your horn. They teach you there's a boundary line to music. But man there's no boundary line to art.
The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards.
Every bit of me is devoted to love and art. And I aspire to try to be a teacher to my young fans who feel just like I felt when I was younger. I just felt like a freak. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm trying to liberate them I want to free them of their fears and make them feel that they can make their own space in the world.
You must not fight too often with one enemy or you will teach him all your art of war.
It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.
Our second phase was to develop a school curriculum that teaches tolerance respect for differences conflict resolution anger management and other attributes of peace.
I had one drama teacher who was amazing Ms. Perkins. She really tried to inspire me and get me going.
John was the smartest and most amazing comedian I've ever worked with. I think more than teaching me about acting or comedy he taught me about life and the love of people and respect of people.
Children are amazing and while I go to places like Princeton and Harvard and Yale and of course I teach at Columbia NYU and that's nice and I love students but the most fun of all are the real little ones the young ones.
If you love dance and you have the gift of teaching teaching is super amazing and important because my teachers planted that seed in me. As a teacher you understand the difference or the definition of a Baryshnikov or a Gregory Hines so teaching is really important and very necessary.
I've traveled all over the country for years speaking in churches teaching the Ten Commandments. It's amazing if 2 percent of any congregation knows the Ten Commandments.
A few years back when my style was 'punk grandma ' I picked up an amazing pair of sandals - orthopaedic ones with really thick soles. I've given them away to a friend now because these days my look is more '1980s substitute teacher gone wild.'
While I'm not a celebrity it's such a weird concept that society has cooked up for us. Astronauts and teachers are much more amazing than actors.
My wife a schoolteacher very disciplined. If you think I'm tough trust me and wait till you see when the children are on the naughty step. It's hilarious. So we decided that I'm going to work like a donkey and provide amazing support for the family.
Money is such an amazing teacher: What you choose to do with your money shows whether you are truly powerful or powerless.
If you would have your son to walk honourably through the world you must not attempt to clear the stones from his path but teach him to walk firmly over them - not insist upon leading him by the hand but let him learn to go alone.
But we cannot rely on memorials and museums alone. We can tell ourselves we will never forget and we likely won't. But we need to make sure that we teach history to those who never had the opportunity to remember in the first place.

In Turkey you're not allowed to be left alone in the hospital. The nurse teaches the family how to do things and somebody is always there with the patient.
Earth teach me to forget myself as melted snow forgets its life. Earth teach me resignation as the leaves which die in the fall. Earth teach me courage as the tree which stands all alone. Earth teach me regeneration as the seed which rises in the spring.
I do not believe that sheer suffering teaches. If suffering alone taught all the world would be wise since everyone suffers. To suffering must be added mourning understanding patience love openness and the willingness to remain vulnerable.
You can get help from teachers but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself sitting alone in a room.
If there is anything I would do differently in my life it is that I would study business more. I'm trying to teach my daughter Chloe at an early age about investing and money so she's not afraid of it.
I basically started playing violin at the age of six. That lasted about three years because my previous teacher died and the second teacher didn't really know how to successfully get me going.
I like today and perhaps a little future still but the past is really something I'm not interested in. So as far as I'm concerned I like only the past of things and people I don't know. When I know I don't care because I knew how it was.
