“It is so delightful to teach those one loves!”

“And what is true education? It is awakening a love for truth; giving a just sense of duty; opening the eyes of the soul to the great purpose and end of life. It is not so much giving words, as thoughts; or mere maxims, as living principles. It is not teaching to be honest, because 'honesty is the best policy'; but because it is right. It is teaching the individual to love the good, for the sake of the good; to be virtuous in action because one is so in heart; to love and serve God supremely, not from fear, but from delight in his perfect character.”

“Truth is a constant delight to those that love her; such beauty holds no power to offend.”

“Moorehead is one of those sad people who go into teaching so they can be worshipped by the only people sadder than they are - students.”

“From love arises hatred of those things which are contrary to what we love, or which oppose and thwart us in those things that we delight in.”

“It has ever been my delight to learn or to teach or to write.”
