Money motivates neither the best people, nor the best in people. It can move the body and influence the mind, but it cannot touch the heart or move the spirit; that is reserved for belief, principle, and morality.

~ Dee Hock
in Education, Inspiration, Passion
Education is not filling a bucket but lighting a fire.

Success does not result from spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire.
~ Fred Shero
The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.
~ Ferdinand Foch
