"There is no recipe to be a great teacher, that's what is unique about them"

"It is a useless life that is not consecrated to a great ideal. It is like a stone wasted on the field without becoming a part of any edifice"

"Behind every great fortune lies a great crime"

"Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them"

"Men are only as great as they are kind"

"He's by best friend and the father of my children. He's a great ex"

"A teacher who is not dogmatic is simply a teacher who is not teaching"

"The only way to do great work is to love what you do"

"To be really great in little things, to be truly noble and heroic in the insipid details of everyday life, is a virtue so rare as to be worthy of canonization"

"Of all the hard jobs around, one of the hardest is being a good teacher"

"Having soon discovered to be great, I must appear so, and therefore studiously avoided mixing in society, and wrapped myself in mystery, devoting my time to fasting and prayer"
