QUALITY OF EDUCATION

G o placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. I f you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP
