Final Thoughts
I were asked to enumerate ten educational stupidities, the giving of grades would head the list... If I can't give a child a better reason for studying than a grade on a report card, I ought to lock my desk and go home and stay there. -Dorothy De Zouche-
The function of education is to help you from childhood not to imitate anybody, but be yourself all the time. -Jiddu Krishnamurti-
