One of my favorite education quotes:

 

"This is why I teach music

…not because I expect you to major in music,

not because I expect you to play or sing all your life,

not so you can relax,

not so you can have fun,

but so you will be human,

so you will recognize beauty,

so you will be closer to an infinite beyond this world,

so you will have something to cling to,

so you will have more love, more compassion,

more gentleness, more good

in short, more life."
