Sayings or Quotes?

Question

I need some (around a dozen) short quotes or sayings that would be appropriate to use on gifts for teachers of small children (age 6 and under). I am painting these onto glass candle jars, so they can't be very long. Please help if you can...

Answer 1

by teaching you will understand.

Whatever you want to teach, be brief.

Good teachers are costly, but bad teachers cost more.

What the teacher is, is more important than what he teaches.

The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book.

Who dares to teach must never cease to learn.

All learning begins with the simple phrase, "I don't know".

If the student fails to learn, the teacher fails to teach

Teach a child how to think, not what to think.

I touch the future. I teach
