Famous quotes containing the word teach:
“Anglo-Saxon civilization has taught the individual to protect his own rights; American civilization will teach him to respect the rights of others.”

“Humor must not professedly teach and it must not professedly preach, but it must do both if it would live forever.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Technique is really personality. That is the reason why the artist cannot teach it, why the pupil cannot learn it, and why the aesthetic critic can understand it. To the great poet, there is only one method of music—his own. To the great painter, there is only one manner of painting—that which he himself employs. The aesthetic critic, and the aesthetic critic alone, can appreciate all forms and all modes. It is to him that Art makes her appeal.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
