"...we are the decisive element in the classroom. As teachers, we possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous. We can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. We can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is our response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a person humanized or de-humanized."
-Haim Ginott
