    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “We should spend less time ranking children and more time helping them to identify their natural competencies and gifts and cultivate these. There are hundreds and hundreds of ways to succeed and many, many different abilities that will help you get there.”
    —Howard Gardner (20th century)
