The School Teacher's Creed
  I believe in boys and girls; the men and women of a great
tomorrow; that whatsoever the boy soweth the man shall reap.  I
believe in the curse of ignorance, in the efficacy of schools; in
the dignity of teaching, and in the joy of serving others.  I
believe in wisdom as revealed in human lives as well as in the
pages of a printed book; in lessons taught not so much by precept
as by example; in ability to work with the hands as well as to
think with the head; in everything that makes life large and
lovely.  I believe in beauty in the school room, in the home, in
daily life and in out-of-doors.  I believe in laughter, in love,
in faith, in all ideals and distant hopes that lure us on.  I
believe that every hour of every day we receive a just reward for
all we are and all we do.  I believe in the present and its
opportunities, in the future and its promises and in the divine
joy of living. - Edwin Osgood Grover
