“Un très vieil ami de mon père, sorti premier de l'École normale, avait dû à cet exploit de débuter dans un quartier de Marseille : quartier pouilleux, peuplé de misérables où nul n'osait se hasarder la nuit. Il y resta de ses débuts à sa retraite, quarante ans dans la même classe, quarante ans sur la même chaise. Et comme un soir mon père lui disait : « Tu n'as donc jamais eu d'ambition ? - Oh mais si ! dit-il, j'en ai eu ! Et je crois que j'ai bien réussi ! Pense qu'en vingt ans, mon prédécesseur a vu guillotiner six de ses élèves. Moi, en quarante ans, je n'en ai eu que deux, et un gracié de justesse. Ça valait la peine de rester là. »”

“A shower of rain rejuvenates nature; similarly a Good Teacher rejuvenates learners with the beauty of knowledge. A shower of rain in the desert rejuvenates the most barren wasteland and helps hibernating flowers to bloom with an explosion of colour and eagerness; similarly a Great Teacher rejuvenates hibernating learners to bloom with an explosion of love for learning, curiosity and eagerness to explore the world without fear and inhibitions.”
