More From William Glasser
- "Every single major push in education has made it worse and right now it’s really bad because everything we’ve done is de-humanizing education. It’s destroying the possibility of the teacher and the student having a warm, friendly, intellectual relationship."
- "Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war, it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first."
- "If you want to change attitudes, start with a change in behavior."
