Teacher Appreciation Quotations
Happy National Teachers Day. Few jobs are more under-appreciated. Teachers cultivate the young minds who are responsible for the future. ~Keith Wynn, 2017
A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops. ~Henry Brooks Adams, "Failure" (1871), The Education of Henry Adams: An Autobiography, 1907
Our country's story, written over more than two centuries, is one of challenges, chances, and progress. As our Nation has advanced on our journey toward ensuring rights and opportunities are extended fully and equally to all people, America's teachers — from the front lines of our civil rights movement to the front lines of our education system — have helped steer our country's course. They witness the incredible potential of our youth, and they know firsthand the impact of a caring leader at the front of the classroom.... Our future is written in schools across our country.... On National Teacher Appreciation Day and during National Teacher Appreciation Week, let us ensure our educators know how much we value their service in the classroom, how much we appreciate all they do for our students and families, and how thankful we are for their contributions to our national progress. ~Barack Obama, National Teacher Appreciation Proclamation, 2016
Every action of your life touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity. ~Edwin Hubbell Chapin (1814–1880), "Address to the Young"
No man stands so straight as one who stoops to help a child. ~James J. Davis, c.1920s
We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future. ~Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 1940

And thanks; and ever thanks...

Teaching is not a lost art but the regard for it is a lost tradition. ~Jacques Barzun, 1940s
In teaching you cannot see the fruit of a day's work. It is invisible and remains so, maybe for twenty years. ~Jacques Barzun, 1940s
...silent gratitude isn't very much use to anyone... ~G. B. Stern
I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder. ~G. K. Chesterton, A Short History of England, 1917
