A Quote by Donald D. Quinn on teachers and teaching

"If a doctor, lawyer, or dentist had 40 people in his office at one time, all of whom had different needs, and some of whom didn't want to be there and were causing trouble, and the doctor, lawyer, or dentist, without assistance, had to treat them all with professional excellence for nine months, then he might have some conception of the classroom teacher's job."

Being a teacher is one of the toughest jobs out there, and this quote does it justice.
I know it's going to be hard but that challenge of keeping young children active in learning is one of the reasons I look forward to being an elementary school teacher.
