• El profesor no sólo forma las expectativas y ambiciones de sus alumnos, sino que también influye en sus actitudes hacia su futuro y hacia sí mismos. Si es poco hábil, deja cicatrices en la vida de los jóvenes, hiere profundamente su autoestima y distorsiona la imagen que tienen de sí mismos como seres humanos. Pero si ama a sus alumnos y tiene grandes expectativas puestas en ellos, su confianza en sí mismos crecerá, sus capacidades se desarrollarán y su futuro estará asegurado.

• The soul of the just man is but a paradise, in which, God tells us, He takes His delight. What do you imagine, must that dwelling be in which a King so mighty, so wise, and so pure, containing in Himself all good, can delight to rest? Nothing can be compared to the great beauty and capabilities of a soul; however keen our intellects may be, they are as unable to comprehend them as to comprehend God, for, as He told us, He created us in his own image and likeness.

• My father used to tell me that stories offer the listener a chance to escape but, more importantly, he said, they provide people with a chance to maximize their minds. Suspend ordinary constraints, allow the imagination to be freed, and we are charged with the capability of heighetned thought.
  Learn to use your eyes as if they are your ears, he said, and you become connected with the ancient heritage of man, a dream world for the waking mind.

• Today, we are tabling a motion seeking the support of the House for the Government's decision to renew our military mission against ISIL for up to an additional 12 months.

• I can't wait to do a fully improvised script again, to find people who are really comfortable and into it. It's about the capabilities of the people you're working with, what are their strengths and weaknesses.
